Add fresh chives and salty prosciutto to create this delicious recipe for devilish eggs.
1/4 cup mustard powder
1/4 cup mustard seeds
1 tbsp black mustard seeds, optional
1/3 cup white-wine vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ground pickling spice
1 tbsp brown sugar
6 hard-boiled eggs
3 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tbsp chopped prosciutto
1 tbsp spiced mustard
1 tbsp finely chopped chives
To make Spiced mustard: Stir mustard powder with mustard seeds, 3 tbsp cold water, vinegar and salt in a small bowl. Stir 1 tsp ground pickling spice and 1 tbsp brown sugar into mustard mixture. Store in a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate overnight before using.
To make Devilish eggs: Peel 6 hard-boiled eggs and slice each in half crosswise. Remove a sliver from ends of eggs, if needed, to help them sit flat. Scoop yolks into a bowl. Mash until crumbly, then stir in 3 tbsp mayo, 2 tbsp chopped prosciutto, 1 tbsp Spiced mustard and 1 tbsp snipped chives until mixed. Spoon into egg whites and mound on top.
