Ingredients
Instructions
- Hard Boil Eggs:
- Stovetop Method: Add eggs to a saucepan and cover eggs with cold water. Heat until water comes to a boil. Stir in 1 teaspoon of baking soda (this helps the eggs peel easily), apply a lid to cover, and remove from heat. Rest with the lid on for 12 minutes. Remove eggs to an ice water bath to cool.
- Instant Pot Method: Add 1 cup (0.24 l) of water to the Instant Pot. Add a wire rack and place eggs on top. Cook on high pressure for 5 minutes, with a 5-minute natural release. Remove eggs to an ice water bath for 5 minutes.
- Oven Method: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Place each egg in the cup of a standard muffin tin and bake for 30 minutes. Remove eggs to an ice water bath to cool.
- Peel and cut eggs: Slice peeled eggs in half, lengthwise. Carefully remove the yellow yolks and place them in a bowl.
- Filling: To the bowl with the egg yolks, add mayonnaise, pickle relish, and mustard. Mash with a fork until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add more mayo, mustard, or seasonings to taste, if needed.
- Assemble: Add a big spoonful of filling back into each egg white. Use a spoon or a pastry bag to pipe the filling in. Garnish with paprika or chives just before serving.
- Store in the fridge for 2-3 days (depending on the freshness of eggs).
