Tips:

  • Choose fresh, large eggs. Older, smaller eggs will be more difficult to peel and will not hold their shape as well.
  • Bring the eggs to room temperature before boiling. This will help to prevent the eggs from cracking when they are placed in the boiling water.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water. This will help to prevent the egg whites from sticking to the shell.
  • Boil the eggs for 10-12 minutes. For a softer yolk, boil for 8-10 minutes. For a harder yolk, boil for 12-14 minutes.
  • Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath. This will stop the cooking process and make the eggs easier to peel.
  • Peel the eggs under cold running water. This will help to remove any remaining shell fragments.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the eggs in half. This will help to prevent the eggs from crumbling.
  • Scoop out the yolks and place them in a bowl. Be careful not to break the egg whites.
  • Mash the yolks with a fork. Add your desired seasonings and mix until well combined.
  • Spoon the yolk mixture into the egg white halves. Sprinkle with paprika, chopped herbs, or other desired toppings.
  • Serve immediately or chill for later.
