List of Ingredients

â—¦ 8 large eggs
â—¦ ½ cup mayonnaise
â—¦ 1 teaspoon grainy Dijon mustard
â—¦ 1 ½ teaspoons sherry vinegar
â—¦ Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
â—¦ 1 teaspoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
â—¦ 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus sprigs and leaves for garnish
â—¦ 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh chives, plus snipped chives for garnish


Recipe

Prepare an ice water bath. Put eggs in a medium saucepan. Cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, gently stirring as water begins to boil, 2 minutes. Cover, and remove from heat. Let stand 10 minutes. Transfer to the ice-water bath to cool.

Peel eggs; halve lengthwise. Reserve four of the egg-white halves for another use. Pass yolks through sieve into a medium bowl using the back of a spoon. Stir in mayonnaise, mustard, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in herbs.

Transfer yolk mixture to a pastry bag fitted with an open-star tip. Pipe mixture into whites, filling to ½ inch over surface. Garnish with herbs. Eggs can be refrigerated in an airtight container, up to 3 hours.
