How To Make Perfect Deviled Eggs For Every Celebration

Step 1: Place your eggs in a single-layer style in your saucepan. Submerge them with cold water at around one and a half-inch. Afterward, boil under high heat until water is boiling; ensure that you cover the saucepan with a lid.

Cook the eggs for around 30 to 35 seconds minutes. Once cooked, remove them from the saucepan and cool under room temperature at around 10 to 12 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the bowl of cold water. Transfer your cooled dry eggs with a slotted spoon onto the bowl of cold water. Let it rest for around 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, crack the eggs carefully to ensure the eggs don’t crumble or fall apart.

Peel them until eggs are clean and shell-free. If the eggs are hard to peel, place them onto the bowl of cold water again for five minutes.

Step 1: Once all your eggs are peeled and shell-free, cut them in half, lengthwise. Scrape all the yolks carefully and gather every yolk in a small bowl. Egg whites should be placed on a serving platter.

Step 2: Using a fork, mash the yolks until they are completely powdery and in a fine state. Pour in the mayonnaise, vinegar, and mustard, then stir until all the ingredients are all infused. Add some salt and ground pepper to taste. Then again, mix the ingredients vigorously until it achieves a smooth consistency.

Step 3: Scoop in the egg yolk using a small cookie scoop and distribute to equal parts to the egg whites. Sprinkle with paprika or other seasonings to your liking. Serve and enjoy!
