To make peeling easy, plunge the boiled eggs directly into cold water and let them cool,
changing the water until they are chilled all the way to the center.
Crush the peeled eggs finely by hand,
or finely mash them using a spoon or a fork.
Add mayonnaise, mustard, salt, honey, and a little ground black pepper, then mix evenly to complete the filling.
Taste and adjust with extra salt or sugar to your liking.
