Ingredients

12 eggs

6 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 teaspoons Chinese mustard

4 teaspoons wasabi paste

2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lime juice

2 teaspoons chopped nori

Preparation

Hard-boil 12 eggs, cool, peel, halve, and carefully remove the yolks; reserve the whites.

Combine egg yolks, mayonnaise, Chinese mustard, wasabi paste, freshly squeezed lime juice and chopped nori in a medium nonreactive bowl. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper and mix well until yolks are broken up and ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Evenly pipe or spoon yolk mixture into reserved egg white halves.

As desired, top with deep-fried nori strips and uni (sea urchin), salmon, or tuna roe, or unagi (eel), or crab.
