Ingredients

  • 6 eggs

FILLING:

  • 2 -4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon yellow or brown mustard
  • Splash white wine vinegar 1 to 2 teaspoons
  • Pinch yellow curry optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • GARNISH:
  • Cornichon miniature pickles
  • Capers
  • Paprika

Instructions

  • Directions
  • Super helpful: Save the cardboard (not styrofoam) egg carton and cut it to fit into the pressure cooker.
  • Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl, set aside.
  • Fill the pressure cooker with 1 cup of water.
  • Place the egg cart on top of a trivet. Place the lid on, lock and pressure cook on HIGH for 6 minutes.
  • Release the pressure, then remove the eggs (with tongs) and place into the ice bath.
  • Note:
  • If you don't own a pressure cooker, here's how to cook perfect hard boiled eggs on the stove:
  • Place eggs in medium saucepan, cover with 1-inch of water, and bring to boil over high heat. Remove pan from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a medium bowl with 1 quart water and 1 tray of ice cubes (or equivalent). Transfer eggs to ice water bath with slotted spoon; let sit 5 minutes. Peel and use as desired. (Source: America's Test Kitchen, Season 1)
  • Once cool, peel under slow running cold water.

For the eggs:

  • Cut the cooled eggs in half.
  • Remove the cooked egg yolk (I push the white part of the egg, gently, inside out.)
  • Using a potato ricer, I place all of the egg yolks into the well and squeeze into a bowl.
  • Add the mayonnaise and season to your liking. It's best to go easy on the mayonnaise, adding more in small increments until it reaches your ideal consistency.
  • Place the filling into a piping bag (or a Zip-Log bag, with the corner cut off) and use a star tip filling. Pipe into each egg.
  • Garnish with a pinch of paprika for color. Garnish to your liking. I use thinly sliced cornichons, or capers. A small sprig of fresh dill or parsley looks festive, too.
  • Keep the eggs chilled until right before serving. They will disappear fast!
