Recipe Tips
For the smoothest filling, make sure your eggs are thoroughly cooled before peeling, and use room temperature mayonnaise.
If you prefer a more elegant presentation, use a piping bag with a star tip to fill the egg whites.
For perfect hard-boiled eggs every time, try using an Instant Pot - they cook evenly and the shells practically slide off when peeled under running water.
