Ingredients
- 12
large eggs
- 1/2 cup
mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp.
vermouth
- 24
Calvastrano olives, plus 1 Tbsp. olive brine
- 1 tsp.
kosher salt
Equipment Needed
A piping bag, a large star tip, 24 toothpicks
Directions
- Step 1Bring a large pot of water to a boil. (For 12 eggs, use about 4 qt. water.) Using a slotted spoon or tongs, gently lower eggs, one at a time, into water. Return to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 12 minutes.
- Step 2A few minutes before eggs are cooked, fill a large bowl with about 4 cups ice and about 6 cups water. Transfer eggs to ice bath. Let sit for about 30 seconds.
- Step 3Using the back of a spoon, tap each egg, making sure to tap all over shell. (Alternatively, you can tap and roll the eggs on a counter; keep in mind not to tap the eggs too hard!) Return cracked eggs to ice bath and let sit 5 minutes. Peel eggs under a thin stream of cool running water, or peel while still in ice water.
- Step 4Slice eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop yolks into a medium bowl; reserve egg whites. Add mayonnaise, vermouth, olive brine, and salt to yolks. Using a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat yolk mixture until smooth.
- Step 5Arrange reserved egg whites on a platter. Transfer filling to piping bag fitted with large star tip. Pipe filling into egg whites.
- Step 6Spear an olive with a toothpick and place on top of egg. Repeat with remaining olives. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
