3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation

    Split the eggs in half lengthwise. Remove the egg yolks. Using a fork, break up the yolks in a mixing bowl. Stir in the Sriracha Mayo, mustard, salt, and pepper, blending well.

    Step 2

    Place eggs in a large pot and fill with enough cool water to cover the eggs by 2 inches. Slowly bring to a boil over medium heat. Once the water has reached a boil, cover the pot and remove from the heat. Let rest for 12 minutes. Drain the cooking water then place the eggs under cool running water for several minutes to halt the cooking.
