Instructions

Step 1

Start by peeling your hard-boiled eggs and slicing them in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks and set the whites aside on a plate with the cut sides facing up. Put the yolks in a small bowl.

Step 2

Mash the yolks with a fork until they’re crumbly. Then, stir in some mayonnaise, honey mustard, and a splash of lemon juice. If you have a mini food processor or blender, this is a great time to use it—it helps make the filling super smooth and creamy without any lumps.

Step 3

Next, mix in finely chopped tarragon, a bit of minced onion, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Give everything a good stir until it’s well combined.

Step 4

Spoon the filling back into the egg whites. If you want to get fancy, you can pipe the mixture in using a piping bag or a small plastic sandwich bag with the corner snipped off for a prettier presentation.

Step 5

Finish by garnishing each egg with a small tarragon leaf. Pop them in the fridge to chill until you’re ready to serve.
