Prepare the Filling: Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Assemble the Eggs: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. Sprinkle paprika over the top for a classic finish. Add chives or relish if desired.
Serve: Chill until ready to serve. These eggs are perfect for picnics, family gatherings, or as a simple snack.
Tips & Variations:
For a zesty twist, mix a little hot sauce or horseradish into the yolk filling.
Make ahead and refrigerate; deviled eggs often taste even better after a few hours as flavors meld.
For a colorful presentation, use different toppings like smoked paprika, finely chopped bell peppers, or microgreens.
