These tasty southern deviled eggs are classic mayonnaise-based eggs with a touch of tangy mustard, pickle relish, a dash of hot sauce, and smoked paprika.

📝 Ingredients

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons pickle relish
  • 2 dashes vinegar-based hot sauce
  • salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • paprika for garnish

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the egg yolks from the hard-boiled eggs and transfer them to a bowl. Mash them well with a fork. For an extra creamy texture, push the egg yolks through a potato ricer using the disk with the smallest holes.
  2. 2Stir in the mayo, mustard, pickle relish, and hot sauce. Blend well and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  3. 3Spoon in or pipe the yolk mixture into the eggs. Garnish with a few pinches of smoked paprika.
