Ingredients:
12 large eggs
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 ounces of your favorite caviar (we recommend our finest selection available at Flavors of Luxury)
Fresh chives or dill, finely chopped, for garnish
Step 1: Boil the Eggs Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with cold water by about an inch. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then immediately remove the saucepan from the heat and cover it. Allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for 12 minutes. Next, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and let them cool completely.
Step 2: Peel and Halve the Eggs Once the eggs are completely cooled, gently tap each one on a countertop or cutting board to crack the shell, then carefully peel away the shell. After peeling, rinse the eggs under cold water to remove any small shell fragments. Pat the eggs dry with a paper towel, and then slice each one in half lengthwise.
Step 3: Prepare the Filling Carefully remove the egg yolks from the egg whites and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Arrange the egg white halves on a serving platter. Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the yolks until they are smooth and free of any large lumps. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice to the mashed yolks. Mix well to combine, then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Step 4: Fill the Egg Whites Using a small spoon or a piping bag fitted with a decorative tip, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, mounding it slightly above the surface of the egg white.
Step 5: Garnish with Caviar and Herbs Top each deviled egg with a small spoonful of your chosen caviar, creating a luxurious and visually stunning garnish. For an added touch of color and flavor, sprinkle finely chopped chives or dill over the deviled eggs.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy Serve the Deviled Eggs with Caviar immediately, or cover and refrigerate them for up to a few hours before your event. Pair these elegant appetizers with a chilled glass of Champagne or your favorite white wine, and savor the exquisite flavors of luxury.
