Method
Boil and chill the eggs
- Place the large eggs in a pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Cover the pot, remove from heat, then let the eggs stand for 12 minutes.
- Chill the eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes. Peel and halve them lengthwise.
Make the filling
- Mash the yolks with Kewpie mayonnaise, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until smooth. Keep mashing until the mixture is thick and uniform with no lumps.
Fill and finish
- Pipe the filling into the egg whites. Fill each half all the way to the edges for a neat dome.
- Spoon a little chili crisp over each egg. Make sure the glossy red chili crisp sits on top visibly.
- Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions, then serve immediately. Aim for an even scatter so every bite has crunch and green onion freshness.
Notes
For clean halving and easy piping, chill the boiled eggs until firm before peeling, then work quickly while the yolk mixture stays smooth. Store filled eggs covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days; add chili crisp and garnishes right before serving for the best texture. For a lighter option, use Kewpie mayo labeled “light” or replace part of it with an equal amount of plain Greek yogurt (expect a slightly tangier filling).
