Why I Love This Recipe
Deviled eggs have been a party favorite throughout history, but the term "deviled" originated in the 18th century, referring to spicy or zesty foods!
Ingredients You'll Need
4 large eggs
2 tbsp mayonnaise
2/3 tsp Dijon mustard
2/3 tsp white vinegar
Salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Paprika, for garnish
Directions
Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and let them simmer for 10 minutes.
Transfer the cooked eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for about 5 minutes. Carefully peel the shells off the eggs.
Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the yolks into a bowl. Set the whites aside.
Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Stir in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves.
Sprinkle a light dusting of paprika on top for that classic, gorgeous finish.
Chill in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes before serving.
Pairs Well With
Great with sparkling lemonade or iced tea for a fresh pairing.
