Dilly Deviled Eggs

Yield: 12 deviled eggs.

1 teaspoon salt, divided
6 large eggs
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
¼ teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped, plus more for garnish

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add ½ teaspoon of salt and the eggs to the water. Cook for 6 minutes. Cover with a lid and remove from heat. Let eggs sit for 6 minutes.

Remove eggs from pot and place into an ice bath. Let sit for a few minutes until cooled. Carefully peel each egg. Slice in half lengthwise and place yolks into a bowl. Set whites aside. Break up yolks with a fork until no large lumps remain.

In a separate bowl, mix together mayonnaise, rice vinegar, mustard, the remaining salt, and dill. Add mayonnaise mixture to egg yolks and combine with an immersion blender to achieve a smooth consistency.

Spoon egg mixture into a pastry bag or plastic food bag. Cut a small hole at the corner of the bag and pipe the mixture into each egg white. Garnish each egg with a dill frond.
