Classic deviled eggs are a true crowd-pleaser, which is why this appetizer is a favorite to serve at everything from Easter brunch and holiday feasts to summer cookouts. The yolk of the egg is combined with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, a touch of white-wine vinegar, and a dash of salt and pepper. Whether you pipe the filling with a star tip or simply spoon the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves is up to you.

  • Peel and halve eggs lengthwise; remove yolks and transfer to a bowl. Mash with a fork; mix in mayonnaise, mustard, and vinegar. Press through a sieve to make smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

  • Using a pastry bag fitted with desired tip (we used plain and star tips), pipe yolk mixture into whites. Serve immediately, or chill up to 2 hours.

Cook's Notes

Instead of piping the filling with a pastry bag and tip, you can use a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off. Or simply spoon it into the egg whites.
