12 Eggs (24 halves)
1 TBS Mustard
2 TBS Mayo
1 TSP Vinegar
1 pinch sugar
Salt and pepper
Nutmeg (optional)
Hard boil eggs. Peal eggs. Slice each egg in half and put the yellow in a bowl. Mix egg yellows with mustard, mayo, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Put even amounts back into egg whites. If desired top with nutmeg.
Carefully cut a thin
slice off the bottom part of each egg so that it will stand upright on a
plate, taking care not to slice into the yolk. Discard the slice of egg
white. Slice through the egg about 1/3 of the
way down from the top. Ideally, you should be into the yolk at this point. With a small spoon, hollow out the top and bottom portions of the egg, depositing the yolk into a small bowl. Separate the deeper egg white “bowls” and the “caps” into different piles. Carefully place two olive bits onto the filling as “eyes,” and position a carrot triangle as a “beak.” Maybe raisins for eyes would also work.
