Deviled eggs are America's favorite appetizer for good reason. This version pipes a velvety filling into the whites and adds upscale toppings that make them worthy of any gathering.
Place eggs in a single layer in a pot, cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, cover, remove from heat, and let sit 12 minutes.
Transfer eggs to an ice bath for 5 minutes, then peel and halve lengthwise.
Scoop yolks into a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl and press through with a spoon until smooth.
Mix sieved yolks with mayo, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until creamy. Transfer to a piping bag with a star tip.
Pipe filling into the egg white halves and top with crumbled bacon, a dusting of smoked paprika, and snipped chives.
Arrange on a platter for easy sharing at your next gathering
Pair with your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor
Adds tang and cuts calories significantly
Yellow is more traditional; spicy brown adds depth
Use eggs that are at least a week old—fresh eggs are much harder to peel cleanly.
Pipe the filling for a polished look, or use a zip-lock bag with the corner snipped.
Refrigerate covered up to 2 days. Store filling and whites separately for best results.
Serve cold—deviled eggs should not be reheated.
