Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Green onions (for stems)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Eggs:
- Peel the hard-boiled eggs and cut a small “X” shape at the top of each egg, leaving the bottom intact. Gently open the petals without detaching them.
- Make the Filling:
- Carefully scoop out the yolks into a bowl. Mash them with a fork.
- Add mayonnaise, mustard, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.
- Assemble the Tulips:
- Fill a piping bag (or a plastic sandwich bag with a corner cut off) with the yolk mixture. Pipe the filling into the center of each egg white, allowing it to peek out like tulip petals.
- Create the Stems:
- Insert a green onion into the bottom of each egg to resemble a tulip stem. Arrange the eggs on a platter to form a bouquet.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Chill the tulip-shaped deviled eggs in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
This delightful dish will add an elegant and fun touch to your table!
