Method
Preparation
- Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil.
- Once boiling, remove from heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
- Transfer the eggs to an ice bath for 5 minutes to cool them down quickly.
- Peel the cooled eggs and cut them in half lengthwise.
- Remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
Mixing
- Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to the yolks, mixing until smooth.
- Stir in the crumbled bacon.
Assembly
- Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.
- Sprinkle with paprika and garnish with chives or parsley if desired. Serve chilled.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For easier peeling, use older eggs. You can experiment with different types of mustard and consider adding a dash of hot sauce or chopped jalapeƱos for an extra kick.
