Cooking Instructions:

Prepare Eggs:
- Slice eggs lengthwise, slipping yolks into a separate bowl.
- (Tip: Set aside any egg halves that didn’t come out perfectly; they can be diced and used in the egg salad mix.)
-
Mix Seasonings:
- To the bowl of egg yolks, add finely chopped red onion, turmeric, dill weed, salt, pepper, and half of the paprika.
- Use a fork to loosen the egg yolks and blend with the other ingredients until well combined, ensuring there are no lumps of unmixed yolk.
-
Add Moisture:
- Stir in chopped gherkins and a splash of pickle juice for added tanginess.
- Incorporate approximately 1/4 cup of mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons of both prepared mustard and Dijon mustard, adjusting the amounts based on your preference for creaminess and tanginess.
- (Remember: You can always add more moisture if needed, but it’s difficult to remove excess liquid.)
-
Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the mixture and adjust the moisture levels to your liking by adding more mayo, mustard, or pickle juice as needed.
-
Assemble Deviled Eggs:
- Carefully spoon or pipe the creamy egg yolk mixture into the halved egg whites.
- Sprinkle the remaining paprika over the filled eggs for a pop of color and flavor.
-
Chill and Serve:
- Chill the deviled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
