Yield Makes 12 Stuffed Eggs

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 hard-cooked large eggs
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 large shallot, minced
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
3/4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Cut a paper-thin slice off both ends of eggs and halve eggs crosswise. Force yolks through a sieve into a bowl (or mash with a fork) and stir in remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste. Transfer filling to a pastry bag fitted with a large decorative tip and pipe into whites, mounding it. The stuffed eggs may be made 6 hours ahead and chilled. Covered.
