Step 1

Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Stir in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, capers, chopped tarragon, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 7

Using a small spoon or a piping bag fitted with a star tip, fill the egg white halves with the yolk mixture, mounding slightly.
