Ingredients
- 6 hard boiled eggs, cooled and peeled
- 1 teaspoon whole pink peppercorns, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon whole white peppercorns
- 1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- 1/2 teaspoon whole green peppercorns
- 1/2 teaspoon caper liquid
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Pinch sugar
Directions
Slice the eggs in half from top to bottom. Scoop the yolks into a medium mixing bowl and lay the whites aside. Place all of the peppercorns, except 1/2 teaspoon of the pink peppercorns, into a spice grinder and process until ground well. Add the ground peppers, caper liquid, mayonnaise, mustard, salt and sugar to the egg yolks and using a fork, stir to thoroughly combine. Place the mixture into a zip-top plastic bag and cut a small hole at one of the corners. Pipe the mixture into each of the white halves. Coarsely grind the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of pink peppercorns and use to garnish the top of each egg.
Chill for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator before serving.

Good, although I agree that it was a skosh too salty. And I did use the correct amount of kosher salt.
I think that caper juice and mustard vary in saltiness. So if you have very salty caper juice, it might not need any added salt. Next time, I'd make the filling with no salt first, taste, and then add the salt only if it needed it.

I made these for my mother for her Mother's Day Brunch and she LOVED them. She is a real gourmand and hard to please. I was so happy when she asked me to email her the recipe. Thanks Alton. These eggs are in my permanent rotation!

I made these for Easter last year and they were a huge hit with all 16 of my guests. I couldn't find all the different peppercorns but did find a "combo" McCormick grinder that contained an assortment. I couldn't get the darn cap off so grinding took awhile but was worth it. These are wonderful!!!
