Truffle Deviled Eggs
Description
This recipe starts with hard boiling eggs, then peeling and slicing them lengthwise to separate the yolks. The yolks are mashed and mixed with mayonnaise, minced red onion, prepared mustard, truffle oil, truffle salt, and finely minced dill pickle, producing a creamy, flavorful filling with a subtle earthy aroma from the truffle additions.
The mixture is spooned or piped back into the egg whites, forming neat, filled halves. Using a piping bag with a star tip for filling enhances presentation by creating a textured, decorative appearance. The finished eggs can be garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of paprika for color.
The truffle components add an indulgent flavor note to this classic appetizer. If truffle salt is unavailable, finishing with regular salt and a small amount of truffle oil is a suitable alternative.

Notes
