Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1.5 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoons kosher salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh chives
• 0.5 teaspoons truffle oil (optional)
• 2 strips crispy bacon, crumbled (optional)
• 1 tablespoon caviar (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a single layer in a large saucepan and cover them with cold water until there is about 1 inch of water above the eggs.

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat, cover it, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.

Step 3

Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Peel the eggs under cold running water. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 5

Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and gently remove the yolks, placing them in a bowl. Arrange the empty egg whites on a serving platter.

Step 6

Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and truffle oil (if using). Mix until fully combined and creamy.

Step 7

Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a star tip or use a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off. Pipe the filling evenly into the empty egg white halves.

Step 8

Garnish the eggs with finely chopped chives. For added luxury, sprinkle crispy bacon crumbles on top or place a small dollop of caviar on each egg.

Step 9

Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
