Ingredients

Scale

Eggs & Filling

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup pickled onions, chopped

Garnish

  • Fresh chives for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the eggs: Peel the hard-boiled eggs carefully and slice them in half lengthwise to create even halves for filling.
  2. Remove yolks: Gently scoop out the yolks from each egg half and place them into a medium-sized bowl.
  3. Make the filling: Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to the egg yolks. Mash the mixture thoroughly until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
  4. Add pickled onions: Fold in the chopped pickled onions carefully to incorporate a tangy crunch to the filling without overmixing.
  5. Fill the egg whites: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg whites, filling them generously and evenly.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh chopped chives on top of each deviled egg for a pop of color and mild onion flavor.
  7. Chill: Refrigerate the deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld and the filling firm up.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for easier peeling after boiling.
  • Adjust the amount of pickled onions based on your preference for tanginess.
  • For smoother filling, you can blend the yolk mixture briefly instead of mashing by hand.
  • These deviled eggs should be consumed within 2 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Feel free to substitute fresh onions or add a dash of smoked paprika for extra flavor.
