Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 6 pieces hard-boiled eggs Use large eggs for best results.
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise Use your favorite brand or homemade.
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickles, finely chopped Adjust the amount based on preference.
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard Can substitute with yellow or spicy brown mustard.
  • to taste none Salt and pepper Season according to preference.
  • to taste none Paprika for garnish Optional, for flavor and color.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by hard-boiling six eggs. Place them in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot and let sit for 10-12 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool down quickly.
  2. Once cool, gently tap and roll the eggs on a counter to crack the shell. Peel under running water for ease.
  3. Cut each egg in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl, placing the whites on a serving platter.
  4. In the bowl with the yolks, add the mayonnaise, chopped dill pickles, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Mash everything together until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.
  5. Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture.
  6. Lightly sprinkle paprika over the tops for added flavor and color.

Notes

For a twist, try different types of pickles or add herbs and spices to suit your taste. Ensure egg halves are stable to avoid mess while serving. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
