Ingredients
Scale
6 large eggs
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon white vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
Paprika for garnish
Instructions
Hard Boil the Eggs: Begin by placing the 6 large eggs in a pot and covering them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once you see those bubbling, glorious waves, cover the pot and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit for about 12-14 minutes.
Cool the Eggs: Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with ice water. Allow them to cool for a few minutes.
Peel the Eggs: Gently tap them against the counter to crack the shell, and peel them under running water if you like.
Separate the Yolks: Gently remove the yolks from the whites and place them in a mixing bowl.
Mix the Filling: Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper to the yolks. Mash until smooth.
Fill the Egg Whites: Use a spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg whites.
Add the Finishing Touch: Sprinkle paprika over the top.
Chill and Serve: Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving.
