Ingredients
- 12 eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream or mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 6 green olives, minced (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 stalk celery, finely minced
- 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika

Preparation
Step 1
Place a wet paper towel in the bottom of the skillet and place the eggs on the paper towel. Cover the skillet, close the vent and cook over medium-low heat 210°F (99°C). When the cover spins freely on a cushion of water, the vapor seal has formed, 3 to 5 minutes for an electric or gas range, less than 1 minute on an induction range. After forming the seal, cook for 10 to 12 minutes. Do not peak. Removing the cover will destroy the vapor seal and lengthen the cooking time.
To cool the eggs before peeling, remove the cover and place the pan under cold running water for 3 to 5 minutes. Or fill the pan with water and add ice cubes. Let the hard-cooked eggs sit in the cold water for 10 to 15 minutes.
Peel the shells from the eggs and cut the eggs in half lengthwise. Place the yokes in a mixing bowl and the egg white halves on a serving platter. To the mixing bowl, add sour cream, mustard, olives, pepper, hot sauce, parsley and celery and mix well.
Spoon the egg yolk mixture into the egg white halves and sprinkle with paprika. Cover and chill before serving.
