“The Greatest” Deviled Eggs

Serves4

Ingredients

Kosher salt

  • 8 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons very finely chopped celery
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped drained pickle relish
  • 2 tablespoons very finely chopped scallion
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons very finely chopped parsley, plus more for serving
  • 2 dashes hot sauce (such as Tabasco), plus more for serving

Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add eggs. Bring water to a simmer and cook eggs 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water; let sit until cool enough to handle. Peel.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk mayonnaise, celery, relish, scallion, mustard, 2 tsp. parsley, and 2 dashes hot sauce in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Halve eggs lengthwise. Scoop yolks into mayonnaise mixture and place whites on a plate. Gently mash yolks into dressing; season with salt and pepper. Using 2 forks, fill egg halves with yolk mixture.
  4. Top eggs with pepper and more parsley and serve with hot sauce.
  5. Do Ahead: Eggs can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill egg whites and filling separately; fill just before serving.
