MY MOM'S DEVILED EGGS
I got this recipe from my mom. I don't know where she got it from. The key is the celery salt. The amounts are approximate as Mom always "eye-balled" everything.

MOM'S DEVILED EGGS
A staple of every 4th of July picnic from 1957 until the late 1990s ... I have no idea where Mom got the receipt; I can't believe I couldn't find this recipe here. The secret is the dried onion flakes. (Some recipes shouldn't be made too complicated; for me, potato salad and deviled eggs need to be kept simple, or "classic." This recipe does that.)

MY MOM'S DEVILED EGGS
My Mom taught me how to make these, her secret was the sauce. She used it for these as well as coleslaw and potato salad. I think it is the sugar that makes the eggs slightly sweet. This last Easter, my sister-in-law and I both made deviled eggs and I have to say, that mine won! I don't think I ever have had sweet ones anywhere else. And here is my secret....I eat 2 eggs worth of the whites, while I am making them that makes the other eggs really full.

Tips:
- Use fresh eggs: Older eggs won't peel as easily and may have a stronger flavor.
- Hard-boil the eggs properly: Cook the eggs for 10-12 minutes, then immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Peel the eggs carefully: Start by cracking the eggshell all over, then gently roll the egg between your hands to loosen the shell.
- Make the filling ahead of time: The filling can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
- Pipe the filling into the eggs: Use a piping bag or a spoon to fill the eggs. If you're using a piping bag, fit it with a star tip to create a decorative design.
- Chill the eggs before serving: This will help the filling to set and make the eggs easier to eat.
- Garnish the eggs with herbs or spices: This will add flavor and color to the eggs.
Conclusion:
Deviled eggs are a classic appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make, delicious, and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning, you can create a deviled egg platter that will impress your guests.
