The Best Deviled Eggs

The Best Deviled Eggs combine creamy mashed yolks blended with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, and a touch of horseradish for a balanced tang and slight heat. The filling is smoothly piped or spooned into halved hard-boiled egg whites, finished with a sprinkle of paprika for color and mild smokiness. This recipe suits gatherings and simple snacks where a bright, creamy bite is desired.

Ingredients

  • 12 large egg hard-boiled
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon horseradish sauce creamy
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Slice 12 large hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolk and place yolks into a mixing bowl. Set whites aside on a serving platter.
  2. Use a fork to mash egg yolks in the mixing bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish, 1 teaspoon creamy horseradish sauce, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined. Taste and add up to 1/4 teaspoon salt if necessary. 
  3. Spoon filling into the centers of the whites or use a pastry piping bag to fill. Dust the tops with 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve. Serve cold.

Notes

  • Adjust salt carefully after tasting, as some mustards and relishes vary in saltiness.
