    How to Make Stuffed Eggs

    1. Boil and Cool Eggs

    Start by boiling six eggs in a pot of water for exactly nine minutes, then cool them quickly in ice water to stop the cooking process and make peeling easier.

    2. Peel and Slice Eggs

    Once cooled, gently peel the eggs and slice each one in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks into a separate bowl and arrange the egg whites on a platter. Season the egg whites with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

    3. Prepare Filling

    Mash the yolks until smooth, then mix in the homemade mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Adjust consistency with cold water if necessary.

    4. Fill Egg Whites and Garnish

    Fill the egg whites with the yolk mixture using a spoon or piping bag. Garnish each egg with chopped chives just before serving.

    Pitfalls and tips

    Use the cold start method for cooking eggs

    Place eggs in a single layer in a pot, cover with cold water, bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let sit covered for 9-12 minutes.
