Place the eggs in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover with a lid, and let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.
Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely, about 5 minutes. Peel the eggs gently to remove the shells.
Prepare the dye baths by combining 1 cup of water, 1 teaspoon of white vinegar, and food coloring (a few drops to your desired color strength) in separate bowls, one for each color.
Cut the peeled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks. Set the yolks aside in a small mixing bowl.
Submerge the egg whites into the dye baths. Soak them until they reach your desired pastel shade, about 5-10 minutes. Remove and place on a paper towel to dry.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the dyed egg whites using a small spoon or a piping bag with a star tip for a decorative look.
Sprinkle the filled eggs with paprika for garnish. Optionally, add a small sprig of parsley on top for an extra festive touch.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours before serving.
