A classic appetizer perfect for holidays, potlucks, or anytime you need a crowd-pleasing bite. These deviled eggs are creamy, zesty, and finished with a dash of paprika for that traditional flair.
Fill a saucepan with about 1 inch of water and insert a steamer basket. Bring to a boil, then place eggs in the steamer. Cover and steam for 17 minutes. If you don’t have a steamer, use 3/4 inch of water in the pan.
Immediately cool eggs with cold water and peel once they’re cool enough to handle.
Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Remove yolks and place in a small bowl. Arrange whites on a serving platter.
Mash yolks with a fork. Add Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, minced shallot or onion, Tabasco, salt, and pepper. Mix until creamy. Add more mayo if needed for desired consistency.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the egg white halves. Sprinkle tops with paprika.
Notes
For a festive touch, top each deviled egg with a small sprig of fresh dill or a thin slice of green olive.
