How to make Classic Deviled Eggs
- Place eggs in a single layer in a large pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then immediately remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes.
- While eggs are standing, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and water. After 10 minutes, transfer eggs to the ice bath with a slotted spoon and let cool for at least 5 minutes.
- Gently peel the cooled eggs. Cut each egg in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks into a medium bowl. Place the egg white halves on a serving platter.
- Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until creamy and well combined.
- Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture evenly back into the hollows of the egg white halves.
- Garnish each deviled egg with a sprinkle of paprika and finely chopped fresh chives.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.
