Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons dill pickles, finely chopped

1 teaspoon pickle juice

1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Paprika for garnish

Extra dill pickles for decoration (optional)

Instructions
 

Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a pot, cover them with cold water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let sit for 12-15 minutes.

    Cool and Peel: Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5-10 minutes. Once cooled, gently tap the eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel under running water.

      Prepare the Filling: Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, fresh dill, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mash the yolks and mix until creamy and well combined.

        Fill the Eggs: Carefully spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. For a professional look, use a piping bag fitted with a star tip.

          Garnish: Sprinkle the tops with paprika and add a small slice of dill pickle for decoration if desired.

            Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve cold.
