A classic American appetizer made by halving hard-boiled eggs, mixing the yolks with mayonnaise and mustard, and piping the filling back into the whites. An easy starter for parties and gatherings.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Hard-boil the eggs

12 min

Boil the eggs for 10–12 minutes, then transfer them immediately to an ice bath to cool.

2

Halve the eggs

5 min

Peel the cooled eggs, cut them in half lengthwise, and remove the yolks to a separate bowl.

3

Make the filling

5 min

Mash the yolks with a fork, then stir in the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

4

Fill and serve

3 min

Fill the egg whites with the mixture using a spoon or a piping bag. Sprinkle with ground red pepper and serve.

Reminder

Transfer the eggs to an ice bath right after boiling to cool them quickly; this makes them easier to peel and helps prevent a green ring around the yolks. Let the egg whites cool before preparing the filling so it holds together. Contains eggs.

Su miktarını azaltınca kıvamı toparladı. Belirtilen süreden 15 dakika sonra hâlâ hamurumsuydu, biraz daha pişirmem gerekti. Bekletme süresini kısalttım, yine de güzel açıldı.
