Ingredients

  • 12 eggs large
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise or homemade aioli
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 lemon, or more to taste
  • salt to taste
  • smoked paprika optional, for garnish, omit for nightshade-free

Instructions

  • Place the eggs in medium saucepan, cover with 1 inch of water, and bring to boil over high heat. Remove pan from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Fill a medium bowl half full with cold water and add 1 tray of ice cubes. Transfer eggs to ice water bath and let sit 5 minutes.
  • Peel eggs and then slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks with a spoon, and place them in the bowl of a food processor. Set the whites aside.
  • Blend the yolks, mayonnaise, tahini, garlic, and lemon until smooth in a food processor. Season with salt to taste.
  • Transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip, or use a plastic sandwich bag with the tip of one corner snipped off.
  • Trim a sliver off the bottoms of the cooked egg whites before you fill them to keep them from rolling.
  • Pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites and serve with paprika, if desired.
