Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 tablespoons dill pickle relish

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh dill for garnish (optional)

Paprika for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Begin by placing the eggs gently in a medium-sized pot. Fill the pot with cold water, ensuring the eggs are fully submerged.

    Set the pot over medium-high heat and bring the water to a vigorous boil.

      As soon as the water reaches a boil, cover the pot with a lid, then promptly remove it from the heat. Allow the eggs to sit undisturbed for 10-12 minutes to cook through.

        Prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and cold water. Carefully transfer the eggs from the pot to the ice bath and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes. This will halt the cooking process and make peeling easier.

          Once the eggs have cooled, gently tap each one against a hard surface to crack the shell. Peel them under a gentle stream of running water for smoother shell removal.

            With a sharp knife, slice each peeled egg in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop the yolks out of the egg whites and place them in a mixing bowl.

              To the bowl with the yolks, add the mayonnaise, dill pickle relish, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and black pepper.

                Use a fork to mash all the ingredients together until the mixture is creamy and well combined. Taste the filling and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

                  To fill the egg whites, you can use either a piping bag for a more polished look or a spoon for a more rustic style. Fill each egg white half generously with the yolk mixture.

                    For a finishing touch, sprinkle paprika over the top of each filled egg and add a sprig of fresh dill for an appealing garnish if desired.
