Makes 12 eggs (24 halves)

Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • Paprika for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Instructions

  • Place the eggs in a single layer in a large saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover, remove from heat and let stand for 12 minutes.
  • Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water for 10 minutes to stop the cooking and ease peeling.
  • Peel and slice each egg in half lengthwise. Scoop the yolks into a bowl, keeping the whites intact.
  • Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Stir in the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper.
  • Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, so the filling firms up.
  • Just before serving, dust with paprika and scatter the chives over the top.

Good to Know

The filling holds well covered in the fridge for up to 2 days; fill the whites the morning of so they do not weep.
