Preparation Steps:
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
