Ingredients
- Soak the Egg Halves: Place the peeled and halved hard-boiled eggs in a shallow dish. Pour pickle brine over the eggs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Let them soak in the brine for 1-2 hours in the fridge to infuse the pickle flavor.
- Prepare the Filling: Once the eggs have soaked, carefully remove them from the brine. Scoop out the yolks into a bowl and mash them with a fork.
- Mix the Filling: To the mashed yolks, add mayonnaise, mustard, pickle relish or chopped pickles, and 1 teaspoon of the pickle brine. Stir until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Fill the Egg Whites: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed-out egg whites.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle a little paprika on top for garnish, if desired. Serve and enjoy your pickle-infused deviled eggs!
