Ingredients

  • 12 large hard boiled eggs peeled and cut in half
  • 1/2-3/4 cup mayonnaise depending on how creamy you like the filling
  • 2 teaspoons sweet pickle juice
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • a few drops of Tabasco sauce optional
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional for topping: paprika and/or minced chives

Instructions

  • Gently separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place the yolks in the bowl of a food processor (or in a shallow bowl) and place the whites on a large plate or serving tray.
  • Add the mayonnaise, sweet pickle juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce (if using) and salt and pepper to the food processor (or bowl) with the yolks; process until smooth. If you're not using a food processor use a large fork to mash the yolks into a fine crumble and then stir in the other ingredients.
  • Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the filling into the cavity of each egg white. Alternatively, you can spoon the yolk filling into the whites.
  • To garnish the deviled eggs, add a sprinkle of paprika and top with minced chives. Deviled eggs can be served at room temperature or chilled.

Notes

  • Use this technique for boiled eggs that turn out perfect and are easy to peel.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, try using a gallon-sized freezer bag with one corner cut off.
  • To make ahead, boil eggs 2 days in advance. You can also peel and separate whites from yolks and store until you're ready to make the filling. 
  • Store deviled eggs in an airtight container for up to about 4 days.
