Spiced Egg Delight with Smoky Salt Medley

Ingredients

- 6 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon Maldon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black garlic salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the Eggs:
- Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan. Fill the saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs by about 1 inch.
- Turn the stove to medium-high heat and bring the water to a rolling boil.

2. Cook the Eggs:
- Once the water reaches a rolling boil, lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
- Let the eggs cook for exactly 10 minutes. Timing is crucial for achieving the perfect texture.

3. Cooling the Eggs:
- After 10 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with ice water.
- Allow the eggs to cool in the ice bath for 5 minutes to stop the cooking process and make them easier to peel.

4. Peel the Eggs:
- Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to create cracks, then peel the shells off, beginning from the wider end.

5. Create the Seasoning Mixture:
- In a small bowl, combine the following: Dijon mustard, paprika, Maldon sea salt, kosher salt, flaky sea salt, smoked salt, and black garlic salt.
- Stir the mixture well to ensure an even distribution of flavors.

6. Season the Eggs:
- With a sharp knife, halve each peeled egg lengthwise.
- Use a spoon to spread a small amount of Dijon mustard onto each egg half.
- Generously sprinkle the seasoned salt mixture over the mustard-coated egg halves.

7. Final Touch:
- Arrange the eggs on a serving platter. For an elegant presentation, garnish with a light dusting of paprika for added color and flavor.
