Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika plus extra for garnish
- 1-2 tbsp finely chopped smoked bacon or smoked salmon Optional
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a pot of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10-12 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath immediately to stop the cooking. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
- Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks into a bowl, setting the whites aside. Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth.
- Mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until the filling is creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. For extra smokiness, fold in chopped smoked bacon or smoked salmon (if using).
- Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites. Sprinkle a bit of smoked paprika on top for garnish.
- Arrange on a platter and serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
