Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Boil the Eggs
- Prepare the Eggs: Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan. Cover with cold water, ensuring the water is at least an inch above the eggs.
- Cook: Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the eggs sit for 10–12 minutes.
- Cool: Transfer the eggs to an ice water bath immediately to stop cooking and make peeling easier. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Step 2: Peel and Halve
- Peel the Eggs: Gently crack the shells and peel them under running water for smooth results.
- Slice: Using a sharp knife, cut each egg in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Set the whites aside on a plate or tray.
Step 3: Make the Filling
- Mash the Yolks: Use a fork to mash the yolks into a fine crumble.
- Mix: Add mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar or lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more mayonnaise or mustard to taste.
- Transfer: Scoop the filling into a piping bag fitted with a star or round tip for a polished look. If you don’t have a piping bag, use a zip-top bag with one corner snipped off.
