HATCHING CHICKS DEVILED EGGS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

6 hard-boiled extra large eggs
Mayo, as needed
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon sugar, optional
Peppercorns, for eyes
Carrot chips, for beaks and feet

Steps:

Boil eggs; cool under cold tap water or in ice water until they can be handled. Then peel, rinse, and dry eggs. While eggs are boiling, cut 12 feet and 12 small triangles for beaks from carrot chips. Feet may be left off, if desired. Cut a thin slice from the large end (bottom) of each egg so it will sit flat. Cut off the top third from each egg. Carefully remove the yolks and place in a small mixing bowl along with about 1/3 cup mayo, salt and pepper to taste, and sugar, if desired. Beat with mixer until smooth and creamy, add a dab more mayo if needed to blend. Spoon or pipe the mixture into the egg white bottoms. (I piped it from a plastic ziptop bag.) Replace the tops. Carefully position 2 peppercorns (or tiny pieces of black olives, or capers) for eyes (I used long tweezers to do this). Position 2 triangles, slightly separated, for the beaks. Place feet in front of chicks. Refrigerate until serving.

Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

12 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 ½ tablespoons yellow mustard
1 dill pickle, finely chopped
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish, or to taste
1 teaspoon pickle juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 carrot, cut into rounds
12 slices canned black olives, or as needed

Steps:

Slice through the top 1/3 of each egg, ensuring some of the yolk is included in the slice. Carefully remove the egg yolk from the bottom portion of the egg using a spoon and transfer to a bowl.
Mix egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, pickle, horseradish, pickle juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Fill a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped with the egg yolk mixture. Pipe egg yolk mixture into the hollowed egg whites creating the 'chick', ensuring there is enough filling to add 'eyes' and a 'beak.'
Slice small wedges out of the carrot rounds creating 12 'beaks'. Add a 'beak' to each 'chick'.
Slice olive pieces into small squares to be used as 'eyes.' Add 2 'eyes' to each 'chick.' Place the egg tops onto each 'chick' to look like a chick peaking out of the egg.

Tips:

Fresh eggs are essential: For the best results, use the freshest eggs possible. Older eggs may not peel as easily and the yolks may not be as firm.

Hard-boil the eggs properly: To prevent the yolks from turning green, place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, then drain the water and immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.

Peel the eggs carefully: Once the eggs are cool, peel them under cold running water. This will help to prevent the shells from sticking to the eggs.

Use a sharp knife: When cutting the eggs in half, use a sharp knife to make a clean cut. This will help to prevent the yolks from breaking.

Get creative with your fillings: The possibilities for fillings are endless. You can use classic fillings like mayonnaise, mustard, and paprika, or you can get creative with ingredients like avocado, bacon, or herbs.

Chill the eggs before serving: After you've filled the eggs, chill them for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help to firm up the filling and make the eggs easier to eat.

Conclusion:

Deviled eggs are a classic appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to suit your taste. With a little creativity, you can create a delicious and visually appealing dish that will impress your guests.
