Prepare the Eggs: Cook your eggs using your preferred method: steaming (12-15 min), boiling (10-12 min), or pressure cooking (5 min).

Cool and Peel: Transfer eggs to an ice bath for 5-10 minutes. Peel under running water for best results.

Cut and Scoop: Slice each egg in half and scoop out the yolks into a bowl while keeping the whites intact.

Make the Filling: Add mayo, mustard, hot sauce, garlic powder, and relish to yolks. Mash until smooth and season with salt and pepper.

Fill the Egg Whites: Fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture and sprinkle with paprika if desired.

Serve or Refrigerate: Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to two hours to meld flavors.
