Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ½ teaspoon white wine vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper (plus extra for garnish)
- 2 slices prosciutto (crispy, broken into shards)
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (for garnish)
Preparation Tips
- Crisp the prosciutto properly: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes until golden and crispy. Let cool before breaking into pieces.
- Balance the flavors: The honey cuts the sharpness of the Dijon, creating a rich, smooth filling.
- Use white wine vinegar sparingly: Just a touch enhances the tang without overpowering the sweetness.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Boil and Peel the Eggs
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and let them sit, covered, for 10-12 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath for 5 minutes before peeling.
Step 2: Prepare the Filling
Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. In a bowl, mash the yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, white wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Fill the Egg Whites
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves for a refined presentation.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Top each deviled egg with a crispy prosciutto shard and a light sprinkle of fresh thyme. Finish with an extra crack of black pepper for a touch of spice.
