Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create perfect deviled eggs:
1. Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
2. Simmer: Once boiling, cover the pan and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit for about 10-12 minutes.
3. Cool the Eggs: Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let them cool for about 15 minutes to stop the cooking process.
4. Peel the Eggs: Gently tap each egg on the counter and peel off the shell. Rinse under cold water to remove any bits of shell.
5. Cut the Eggs: Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
6. Mix the Filling: Mash the yolks with a fork and add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
7. Fill the Egg Whites: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed-out egg whites.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle paprika on top for an elegant finish. Optionally, add any desired toppings for extra flair.
9. Serve: Arrange on a serving platter and serve chilled.
