Ingredients
- 6 large hard-boiled eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
- Optional for garnish and decoration:
- 6 cherry tomatoes
- Fresh chives or green onions
Instructions
- Peel hard-boiled eggs and pat dry.
- Slice eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove yolks. Arrange egg whites on a serving platter.
- Mash yolks in a bowl until fine and crumbly.
- Add mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Transfer filling to a piping bag with a star tip or use a spoon to fill egg whites.
- Pipe or spoon the mixture evenly into each egg white half.
- Cut cherry tomatoes into a cross shape at the top without cutting all the way through. Gently open slightly and place over each filled egg to resemble tulips.
- Arrange chives or green onion stems underneath to create the appearance of flower stems.
- Chill for at least 20 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For extra smooth filling, press yolks through a sieve before mixing.
- Prepare filling and egg whites separately if making ahead.
- Keep refrigerated until serving.
- Slice a thin base off egg whites if needed for stability.
- Best served chilled for optimal texture and flavor.
