Deviled eggs, or spiced stuffed eggs, are a classic of the American party and picnic table. The yolk is mixed with mayonnaise and mustard and spooned back into the white. Quick, cheap, and everybody likes them.
Place the eggs in boiling water and cook for 10 minutes (hard-boiled). Immediately transfer to iced water and cool for 5 minutes to make peeling easier.
Peel the eggs and cut them in half lengthwise. Carefully spoon the yolks into a bowl.
Mash the yolks with a fork, add the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Arrange the egg whites on a platter. Fill them with the yolk mixture using a spoon or a piping bag (star nozzle).
Sprinkle with smoked paprika and finely chopped chives.
Keep chilled until serving; they keep for 1 day.
