directions

Step 1

Fill a large, deep saucepan with a tight-fitting lid with 2 inches of cold water. Place the eggs in it and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Immediately turn off the heat and cover with the lid. Let sit for 12 minutes. Transfer to a colander and rinse under cold water.

Step 2

Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks and place 4 yolks in each of 3 bowls. Mash well with a fork.

Step 3

Line a large serving platter with the greens.

Step 4

Add the mayonnaise, chopped capers, mustard and gherkins to one of the bowls of yolks and mash together until thoroughly incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among 8 egg halves. Top each with some capers and place on the platter.

Step 5

Add the mayonnaise and wasabi to the second bowl of yolks and mash together. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among 8 egg halves. Top each with a slice of pickled ginger and a small piece of cucumber and place on the platter.

Step 6

Add the mayonnaise, sesame oil, sesame seeds and carrot to the remaining bowl of yolks and mash together. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among the remaining 8 egg halves. Top each with more sesame seeds and place on the platter.
