SPIDER WEB DEVILED EGGS
Steps:
- Combine 2 quarts water with the food coloring in a saucepot. Gently place the eggs in the water. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover, remove from the heat and set aside for 10 minutes.
- Remove the eggs from the water and place on paper towels. Lightly tap the eggs with a spoon to crack the shells. Transfer the eggs to a container with some ice and pour the cooking liquid over the eggs. Chill until completely cold.
- Gently peel the eggs. Slice a thin sliver off the narrow end of each egg so the eggs can stand upright when plated. Cut off the wide end of each egg and use a small spoon or the tip of a butter knife to gently scoop out the egg yolk into a mini food processor or mixing bowl. Process the yolks (or smash with a fork). Add the mayonnaise, vinegar, salt and pepper and mix until smooth. Spoon or pipe the yolk filling into the egg white cups.
- Place the egg white cups upright on a serving platter. Sprinkle a pinch of paprika on top of the yolks. Finish each egg with a sprig of fresh dill. Serve chilled.

Steps:
- Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 15 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel.
- Cut each egg in half lengthwise, remove the yolks, and place the yolks in a bowl with the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mash the yolks and stir the mixture until smooth and thoroughly combined.
- Fill each egg half with the deviled yolk mixture using a spoon, piping bag, or a sturdy plastic bag with a corner cut off.
- Cut olives in half and place 1 half on each filled egg as the spider body. Cut the other olive half into 4 strips. Cut each strip in half, so you end up with 8 thin olive pieces for the legs. Arrange 4 olive legs on each side of the spider body. Dust with paprika.

Tips:
- Select the freshest eggs possible. Fresh eggs are easier to peel and the yolk will have a better flavor.
- Hard-boil the eggs properly. Undercooked eggs are unsafe to eat and overcooked eggs will be rubbery. Follow the recipe's instructions carefully for the perfect hard-boiled egg.
- Cool the eggs immediately after boiling. This will help to prevent the yolk from turning green.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the eggs in half. A dull knife will crush the egg and make it difficult to remove the yolk.
- Be careful not to overmix the yolk mixture. Overmixing will make the filling dry and crumbly.
- Use a piping bag or spoon to fill the egg whites. This will help to create a neat and even filling.
- Chill the deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help to firm up the filling and make it easier to eat.
Conclusion:
Spider deviled eggs are a fun and festive Halloween appetizer that is sure to be a hit with your guests. With a few simple ingredients and a little creativity, you can create these delicious and spooky treats that are perfect for any Halloween party.
