Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh cilantro or green onions, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, lower the heat to low, cover, and cook for 12 minutes to achieve perfectly hard-boiled eggs.
  2. Step 2: While eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice water.
  3. Step 3: Transfer boiled eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them cool completely for about 5 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Gently tap each egg on a hard surface and roll to crack the shell. Peel the eggs under cold running water for easier removal.
  5. Step 5: Slice each peeled egg in half lengthwise and scoop out the yolks into a bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork, then add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chili garlic sauce, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  6. Step 6: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites for a neat presentation.
  7. Step 7: Drizzle sriracha over the filled eggs if using, and garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions. Serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • For a lighter version, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or mashed avocado for a creamier texture.
  • Adjust the chili garlic sauce and sriracha to control the heat according to your preference.
  • Try different hot sauces like chipotle or harissa for varied flavors.

Storage

Store deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. For best texture and flavor, consume within this time. Reheat is not recommended; serve chilled or at room temperature.

FAQs

Can I make deviled eggs in advance?

Yes, you can prepare the filling and boil the eggs ahead of time, but it’s best to assemble them shortly before serving to keep the whites firm and fresh.

How do I make peeling boiled eggs easier?

Using an ice bath immediately after boiling stops the cooking process and helps separate the membrane from the shell, making peeling smoother and faster.
