Ingredients
1 medium beet (7.5 ounces or 205 grams), peeled and cut in half
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
1/3 cup mayonnaise, preferably Kewpie
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped pistachios
Baby arugula, for garnish
Crumbled goat cheese, for garnish
Directions
- Put the beet in a medium saucepan and add the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, peppercorns, bay leaf, 3/4 cup cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon salt and 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Let boil until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add the peeled eggs to the pan, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to overnight for a deeper pink color.
- Cut the eggs in half, then scoop out the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Put the egg white halves on a serving platter. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon, chives, remaining tablespoon cider vinegar and a bunch of grinds of black pepper to the bowl with the yolks. Use a fork to mash the yolks until smooth and creamy and well combined. Transfer the mixture to a large resealable plastic bag and snip about 1/2-inch off of one of the corners. Pipe the mixture into the holes of the egg whites. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the top, then place 1 piece baby arugula on top of each egg. Sprinkle the platter with the crumbled goat cheese.
