Ingredients
  

Egg Ingredients
  • 6 large large eggs (hard-boiled and peeled)
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (Duke’s or Hellmann’s recommended)
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon dill pickle relish (sweet relish works if you prefer sweeter deviled eggs)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Black pepper (to taste)
  • Paprika (for garnish, smoked paprika optional for a modern touch)
  • Optional: chopped chives or fresh dill for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Let them simmer for about 10-12 minutes, then plunge them in ice water.
  2. Once cool, slice the eggs in half and gently scoop out the yolks into a bowl.
  3. In the bowl with the yolks, add mayonnaise, mustard, pickle relish, salt, and pepper. Mash until creamy and well combined.
  4. Spoon or pipe the mixture back into the egg whites. Get creative with it!
  5. Lightly dust with paprika and add chives or dill if you’re feeling fancy.

Notes

For an even creamier filling, use a hand mixer instead of a fork. You can prepare the filling a day in advance and store it in a sealed container in the fridge.
