In a heavy large pot with thick base, cover eggs with cold water and bring to a boil.
Remove the pot from the heat, cover, and let sit for exactly 14 minutes.
Plunge the eggs into a bowl of ice water to cool for 10 minutes.
Tap the eggs with the back of a spoon gently.
Eggs can sit in water overnight for incredibly easy to peel eggs.
When you're almost ready to serve, peel eggs.
Cut eggs in half, lengthwise.
Gently use a spoon to scoop out egg yolks. Place in small bowl nearby.
Add yolks, mayonnaise, and mustard to bowl.
Whip with a spoon or fork until smooth and fluffy.
Scoop the yolk mix to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip, or a plastic bag with the corner cut off.
Set the egg white halves on a serving platter and pipe in the filling.
Just before serving, sprinkle the deviled eggs with paprika, bacon, a dollop of onion jam, and chives.
Enjoy!
