Ingredients

6 eggs
1.5 liters water
1 large beet
1 lemon
1 flat teaspoon salt
1 heaping tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch of salt
Pinch of ground black pepper

Directions

Boil the eggs for 8–10 minutes, then transfer them to a bowl of cold water.
Peel the eggs and place them in a bowl or container.
Peel the beet, cut it into small cubes, and place them in a pot. Add the water, salt, and the juice of the lemon. Bring to a boil, then let cool.
Remove the beet cubes and pour the beet water into the bowl with the eggs. (If the liquid doesn’t fully cover the eggs, add a bit more water.)
Let the eggs soak in the beet water in the fridge for 3 hours or overnight (but no longer).
For the filling, mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and the seasonings.
Once the eggs are ready, fill the pink halves with the creamy mixture.
Serve on a colorful platter and garnish with fresh herbs or paprika.
