Ingredients:

  • Eggs
  • Mayonnaise (homemade recommended)
  • Dijon mustard
  • Apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper
  • Paprika (for garnishing)

Preparation Steps:

  1. Boil the Eggs:

    • Fill a pot with hot water and bring it to a boil.
    • Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, ensuring no bubbles are forming.
    • Carefully place the eggs into the pot using a skimmer.
    • Cook the eggs for 14 minutes for a hard boil.
  2. Prepare an Ice Water Bath:

    • While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice water bath.
    • After 14 minutes, transfer the eggs to the ice water bath using a skimmer. This stops the cooking process and prevents a green tinge around the yolk.
  3. Peel and Prepare the Eggs:

    • Once cooled, peel the eggs, rinse them, and slice them in half lengthwise.
    • Gently remove the egg yolks with a spoon or by pressing the top and bottom of the egg, and place them in a bowl. Place the egg white halves on a serving tray.
  4. Make the Yolk Mixture:

    • Use a fork to crumble the egg yolks until they resemble coarse sand.
    • Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper to the yolks.
    • Stir the mixture until creamy and well-combined.
  5. Fill the Egg Whites:

    • Spoon the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves. For a more decorative look, you can use a piping bag.
    • Sprinkle a bit of paprika on each egg for the classic "deviled" look and a hint of spice.
