We call it stuffed eggs or devilled eggs (when sprinkled with cayenne) in the UK. You’ll find it on the buffet table at a party… the difference is that you mix the yolk with mayo and stuff it back into the egg white. I’ve had Oeuf Mayo in Paris many times but prefer our version truthfully… it’s more homogenous. The textures don’t clash. I find mayo on top of yolk a weird texture. Any version is great though!

Mostly in France that's the same about eating this dish during easter (I'm French), but it's not called "Oeuf Mayonnaise" like his video, it's "Oeuf Mimosa", it's litterally the same, except the fact you remove the egg yalk and mix it with Mayonaise, and then, you fill the hole the egg yalk left by removing it with the "Mimosa Mix". And for me it's light years better than this classic "Oeuf Mayonnaise". And I'm litterally fed up that in videos like this, they only use the Paris word analogy to say France. Because France is not restricted to this aweful city populated by 10 milion stressed arrogant souls, honestly. (Exagerating, obviously, but there's a part of truth in it.). I'm living in what Parisians call "Province", litterally the word they use to name the remaining France territory except Paris. How arrogant is that.

Don’t knock it until you try it. It’s the mustard that makes it what it is. When I went to Paris I thought it was weird, but it’s so simple , and delicious . The texture of the hard boiled egg with the richness and acidity of a well seasoned mayonnaise with really good quality Dijon mustard in it is so delicious. The Dijon mustard and vinegar is what makes the contrast of flavours so appetizing.

The real french experience is having oeufs mayo a la cantine au collège, that or taking the plate with two radishes just for the little butter block to put on your bread

I ate at Le Bouillon Pigalle (2019 oeuf mayo world champion) when I visited Paris and I couldn't believe something so simple could be so good. It was in 2 things: 1) they didn't overcook the egg, there was flakiness/crumbliness but still some life left, and 2) a house-made custom mayo. Amazing.

We do something similar in my family from Sweden. Boiled eggs cut in half, then add a spoon of red/black caviar, one spoon of mayonnaise, one peeled shrimp, a bit of dill and finally one small slice of lemon

Oh i love filled eggs(americans call them deviled eggs) , around here(not France :D ) the standard recipe is : Boiled eggs Thake the yolk from the eggs and mix it with Pate ( what type you like) some mustard and a bit o mayo . Refill the egg halfs with the mix and top it with mayo. From here every household has its own variation , some use hot paprika in the mixture ( yum) some add some finely chopped pickled cucumbers ( brine ones) inside the mix. Some use the most basic yolk + mayo filling and thats it. Pro tip if you feel the mayo and the mix is to heavy for your stomach , add a generous ammount of lemon juice in the mayo.

In Germany we have something similar we take the egg yolk out and mix it with the mayo and pipe it back in the egg, but this, this is something else typically French attention to detail it was a masterpiece ❤

I'm from Poland and I'm extremely confused right now. For me boiled eggs with mayo was always most basic, common form of serving eggs (alongside with fried and scrambled eggs). In my family we used to it for breakfast at least once a week.

This seems like 80% similar to a deviled egg, and I 100% agree with your love of it.

It's popular in Sweden around Christmas and Easter. Usually comes with roe and dill. It's superb.

I first had egg mayo in a little bistro in Cannes back in the 80s, I found the only way to have it again is to make it myself as I don't live in France, to me it is all about the mayo and I like the combination of anchovies in my mayo it goes really well with the egg like you have in a salade niçoise.

I miss France. I love Paris. I gained 7 lbs. in two weeks while I was there, and I loved it. Best food on earth. Also, you're adorable. I love this channel.

It's not completely unknown, Jacques Pepin taught us this dish many years ago on American TV. I love it.

Omg I'm so loving the Josh appearances !!!

Egg mayonnaise was very popular in the United Kingdom in the 1970s 80s and early 90s. In hotels and restaurants. The alternative was eggs harlequin. One half coated in mayo the other half coated in Marie rose sauce. This was a starter dish and very popular. When done correctly absolutely delicious.

Very popular in Poland, usually on Easter or Christmas. If You want an untraditional twist to it, You put a piece of smoked salmon over the mayo.

It's great to see Josh more! I really miss the podcast.

In Sweden we put a shrimp and dill on our egg mayo. Very popular for Christmas, Easter and Midsummer

I'm really enjoying the Alex-Josh chemistry

Spanish version here!: huevos rellenos, like oeuf mimosa and versions in most countries, and "bilbainitos" in Basque country which is basically the same but also with a shrimp (and maybe even an olive)

We have egg+mayo-dishes in Sweden for Christmas and Easter with eg shrimps or chives on top

The timer was missing from this sponsors segment. The timer is just great as it makes absolutely clear what part of the video is sponsored and what is not. It should be a mandatory requirement by KZread to at last have a watermark somewhere making this clear. Please put it back. You have always handled this so well in the past. .... and on a positive note.... the list of restaurants I want to visit in Paris just keeps growing.

I liked the comparison at the start with a good ramen egg (known in Japanese as ajitsuke tamago 味付け卵).These are eggs worth studying and mastering. I also liked the bed of celeriac salad with a dressing that is perhaps based off of the mayonnaise above? Were those pomegranate seeds in that salad? Wonderful!

In the Netherlands we do something similar called filled eggs where we mix the mayo and some herbs with the yokes and put it back in the shell of egg white.
