Deviled Eggs with Paprika: The Classic Party Appetizer with a Flavorful Twist


  • Author: Hannah

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs

  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise

  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard (or Dijon for a tangier flavor)

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

  • Paprika, for garnish

  • (Optional) A dash of vinegar or hot sauce for extra zing


Instructions

  1. Hard boil the eggs:
    Place eggs in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for 10–12 minutes. Drain and transfer to an ice bath. Peel once cooled.

  2. Halve the eggs:
    Slice eggs in half lengthwise. Carefully remove yolks and place in a bowl.

  3. Make the filling:
    Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add vinegar or hot sauce if using.

  4. Fill the eggs:
    Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.

  5. Garnish:
    Sprinkle with paprika for a classic touch.

  6. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
