Ingredients

  • 1 dozen eggs, plus 2 yolks
  • 1 tablespoon truffle oil
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 dashes hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
  • Salt and white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dry English mustard (recommended: Coleman's)
  • Chives, for garnish

Method

  • In saucepan, add the eggs and enough hot water to cover the eggs.
  • Cook the eggs for 12 minutes at a rapid boil.
  • Remove the eggs to a bowl of cold water and let cool for about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • While the eggs are cooling, prepare the truffle mayonnaise by whisking the remaining 2 egg yolks, in a medium bowl, until the yolks are stiff and increased in volume by 20 percent.
  • Slowly whisk in the truffle oil and olive oil, ensuring that all of the oil is being absorbed before more is added.
  • Continue to add the oil until all of it has been added, then season with hot sauce, salt and white pepper, to taste.
  • Stir in the parsley and the dry mustard and set aside.
  • Remove the eggs from the water, peel and remove the yolks to a medium bowl.
  • Add truffle mayonnaise and mix well with a fork.
  • Arrange the cooked whites on a flat service and fill the well with the prepared egg mixture.
  • Arrange on a serving platter and garnish with chives.
