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. Ingredients 8 large eggs ⅓ cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon white-wine vinegar Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper Directions In a medium saucepan, cover eggs with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil; remove from heat. Cover and let stand 12 minutes. Drain eggs; run under cold water until cool enough to handle. 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. Bryan Gardner 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.
