Heavenly Eggs

Ingredients:

  • 1 Dozen eggs (hard boiled)
  • 1 Tbs. Ground mustard seed
  • 3 Tbs. Dijon or spicy mustard
  • 1/4 C Mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbs Smoked paprika
  • Horseradish to taste for a kick
  • 1 Tbs. white wine vinegar
  • Salt and pepper

Directions:

  1. Boil eggs. Fill large pot of water deep enough to cover eggs and add a pinch of salt. Add eggs to water without cracking and bring to a gentle boil. Cook until hard boiled, anywhere from 8-10 minutes depending on egg size and your altitude. It’s okay if they are still a bit runny.
  2. Drain water from pot and place eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes or until cool.
  3. Peel eggs and wash thoroughly to remove any excess shell.
  4. Cut eggs lengthwise down the middle and gently remove yolks to a small mixing bowl.
  5. Add to the bowl all remaining ingredients — mustard seed, Dijon mustard, horseradish, mayonnaise, smoked paprika, salt and pepper.
  6. Mix until creamy.
  7. Scoop the mixture into a piping bag. Chef’s hack: Use a 1 gallon zip lock bag, closed at the top, air tight, with a small hole cut out of one corner.
  8. Squeeze the mixture into the halved egg whites.
  9. Sprinkle with smoked paprika.

Enjoy!
