A staple at the holiday dinner table, these Classic Deviled Eggs are a time-tested crowd favorite. Firm egg whites, a creamy, tangy yolk filling, and a sprinkle of paprika, they’re an easy appetizer everyone loves.
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more if needed
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more if needed
- Paprika, for garnishing (if desired)
Instructions
- Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise, removing the yolks to a medium mixing bowl and placing the whites on a serving platter.
- Mash the yolks with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and black pepper, and mix well until smooth. Taste and add more salt and/or pepper if needed.
- Using either a small spoon or a small resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off, fill the inside of the egg whites with the yolk mixture, about 1 tablespoon per egg white.
