Prepare the Toasted Bread:
While the eggs are boiling, prepare the herbed toasted bread. Slice a portion of rustic bread and cut it into small cubes. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the bread cubes to the pan, seasoning them with freshly ground black pepper and the leaves from the fresh thyme sprigs. Toast the cubes until golden and crispy, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Set aside to cool. -
Prepare the Filling:
Once the eggs are fully cooked, remove them from the boiling water and let them cool completely. While they cool, finely chop the chives and set them aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese and freshly grated ginger. Add the chopped chives and mix well until all ingredients are smoothly incorporated. -
Peel and Prepare the Eggs:
After the eggs have cooled, peel them carefully. Using a sharp knife, trim a small piece off the bottom of each egg to create a stable base. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. -
Make the Filling:
Add the egg yolks to the mascarpone mixture. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy, adjusting the seasoning with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste. -
Fill the Eggs:
Transfer the yolk mixture into a piping bag or a plastic sandwich bag with the tip cut off. Pipe the creamy filling into each of the egg halves. -
Finish the Dish:
Top the filled eggs with the crispy, herbed bread cubes. Lightly crumble the cubes between your fingers before sprinkling them over the egg filling. For an extra touch, garnish with a sprig of fresh chives. -

Your Deviled Eggs with Herbed Toasted Bread are now ready to be served! Enjoy as a savory, bite-sized appetizer that is sure to impress guests at any gathering.
