Instructions
 Place eggs in cold water and bring to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes from the time the water started to boil.
To cool the eggs quickly, place them in cold water. |
 Peel the hard boiled eggs.
Cut into half lengthwise. Remove the yolk from the white gently without breaking the white. |
 Mash the egg yolk with a fork. Anna used a cheese grater to grate the egg yolk.
The cheese grater yields very finely grated egg yolk. |
 Add mayonnaise and grain mustard to taste to the egg yolk and mix well.
Fill the egg cup with the yolk mixture with a spoon or piping bag. Garnish with caper and/or parsley. Keep refrigerated until serving. |
Can you believe I have never actually tried eggs like this? They look pretty tasty and I love the effect the cheese grater gives the yolks.
Great recipe! And your plating looks so lovely and appetizing too!
