I grew up with a much older and simpler recipe than this, no mayo, no vinegar, no salt, no pepper.I am bringing devilled eggs. It’s funny that when I make breakfast, two eggs is a lot. But if there are devilled eggs in reach, I swear I could eat a dozen of them without slowing down.
6 boiled eggs
¼ cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
⅛ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon white vinegar
Smoked Spanish paprika
Cut the eggs in half and remove the yolks. Mash up all the yolks in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix in the vinegar a bit at a time until it is as sharp as you want it.
Add the liquid mixture to the egg yolks a bit at a time until it is the consistency that you want it. Fill the egg whites with the mixture. Garnish with paprika.
Simply mash the egg yolks with mustard powder and a splash of milk.
