Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp paprika (optional, for garnish)
- Fresh parsley or chives (for garnish)
- 1–2 tbsp finely diced red bell pepper (for tulip petals)
- 1–2 tbsp finely diced yellow bell pepper (for tulip petals)
Instructions
- Hard boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat and let the eggs simmer for 10-12 minutes. Remove the eggs from the water and let them cool.
- Once the eggs are cool, peel them and cut them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl.
- Mash the yolks and mix them with the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- To assemble the tulips: Use a spoon or piping bag to carefully pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites, shaping it into a rounded tulip-like form.
- Use the finely diced red and yellow bell peppers to create “petals” at the base of the yolk mixture. Arrange the diced peppers in a flower shape around the yolk filling.
- Garnish with a small sprig of fresh parsley or chives for the tulip stem.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy these colorful and delightful deviled egg tulips!
Notes
- For an extra flavor twist, you can add a little bit of relish or hot sauce to the yolk mixture.
- Make sure to pipe the yolk mixture neatly for a clean tulip shape. A piping bag with a star tip works well for creating the texture.
- These deviled egg tulips can be made a day in advance and stored in the fridge until ready to serve.
