Instructions

  • Place the eggs in a pot of salted water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and boil the eggs for 8-10 minutes.

  • Add the chopped garlic, and crab meat, and cook for a few more minutes.
  • Remove the eggs from the stove, pour out the hot water, and submerge in ice cold bath, or leave them under cold running water for a few minutes.
  • Peel, and half the eggs lengthwise. Remove the egg yolks, and mash only half of them (6) with the mayonnaise.
  • Add the yolk and mayonnaise mix to the crab meat, and season with salt, and pepper. Mix in the tarragon, and a couple pinches of cayenne pepper. Cook for a minute until the mix is warmed up.
  • Spoon the mix into the egg halves, and top with more chopped tarragon, and cayenne. Serve warm, or at room temperature.
