Steps
- 1Begin by peeling the hard-boiled eggs and then halving them. Extract the yolks into a small bowl. Into this bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, relish, lemon juice, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Utilize a wooden spoon to blend all the ingredients until a smooth mixture forms. Proceed to refill the egg halves with this mixture using either a piping bag equipped with a large star tip or simply use a teaspoon for this step. Finally, garnish the filled eggs with chives before serving.
- 2For smoother hard-boiled eggs that are easier to peel, opt for older eggs instead of fresh ones. The shells will come off more effortlessly, saving you the hassle of struggling with peeling.
