Preparation
Cut the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise, carefully removing the yolks into a medium bowl and placing the whites on a serving platter.
Filling
Mash the yolks with a fork until crumbly, then add mayonnaise, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, paprika, celery salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Assembly
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture evenly into the egg white halves, filling the cavity generously.
Garnish
Sprinkle additional paprika over the filled eggs and garnish with finely chopped green onion slices if desired.
Tips & notes
For easiest peeling, use eggs that have been refrigerated at least a few days and crack shells gently before peeling. You can also add a pinch of sugar to the yolk mixture for slight sweetness if desired. Chill deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.
Saving it for later
Store leftover deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 3 days for best freshness and safety.
Reheating
Deviled eggs are best served cold. Avoid reheating to maintain texture and safety.
