Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon paprika (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.

Step 3

After 12 minutes, carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes.

Step 4

Peel the cooled eggs by gently tapping them against a hard surface to crack the shells, then rolling them gently between your hands. Start peeling from the wider end where the air pocket is located.

Step 5

Slice each peeled egg in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the yolks into a medium bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving platter, cut side up.

Step 6

Using a fork, mash the yolks into a fine crumble. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper to the yolks. Mix until the filling is smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, dividing it evenly among them.

Step 8

Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the top of each deviled egg for garnish.

Step 9

Serve immediately, or refrigerate the deviled eggs in an airtight container for up to 2 days before serving.
