Instructions:
- Boil the Eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool.

- Prepare the Filling: Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
