Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water by 1 inch, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 12 minutes. Transfer to ice water bath for 10 minutes, then peel and halve eggs lengthwise.

  3. Step 3: Spoon yolk mixture into egg white halves, creating neat mounds. Garnish each with a small chopped parsley leaf and a tiny evergreen sprig, then chill for 30 minutes before serving.
