Steps:
- Place cold eggs from refrigerator into a large pot and add enough cold water to cover eggs by 1 inch. Place over high heat, bring to a simmer, and cover pot once eggs start to move around. Remove from heat and let stand for 17 minutes.
- Drain hot water from pan, cover with lid, and shake pot to lightly crack eggs. Fill pot with cold water, pour off cold water, and refill with more cold water. Let eggs stand in water until cold. Peel eggs and cut in half lengthwise.
- Separate yolks from egg halves; place yolks into a mixing bowl.
- Place crab meat onto a plate and separate into 2 equal portions, one containing the small bits and one containing the attractive larger pink chunks. Reserve portion containing larger chunks.
- Chop the portion of crab meat with the smaller chunks; add to egg yolks. Mash yolks with a fork. Stir in mayonnaise, tarragon, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, seafood seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
- Transfer yolk mixture into a piping bag fitted with a medium tip. Pipe crab filling into cavities of egg halves.
- Chop largest crab pieces and place remaining crabmeat into a small bowl. Lightly stir in lemon zest, creme fraiche, Aleppo pepper, and cayenne pepper with a fork. Taste and adjust salt. If mixture seems dry, stir in more creme fraiche. Top each stuffed egg with a generous pinch of crab mixture.
- Sprinkle each deviled egg with a pinch of chives and a light dusting of cayenne pepper. Transfer eggs to a serving platter; refrigerate until serving time.

EGGS STUFFED WITH CAPERS, OLIVES, ANCHOVY, AND RADISH
Steps:
- In a bowl mash the yolks and combine them well with the olives, the capers, the radish, and the anchovy. Stir in the mayonnaise and the yogurt until the mixture is combined well and season the mixture with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture among the whites and sprinkle the stuffed eggs with the parsley.
Tips:
- For a creamy egg yolk filling, steam your eggs instead of boiling them. This will result in a more tender and flavorful yolk.
- To easily remove the egg yolks, use a spoon to gently scoop them out of the egg whites. You can also use an egg separator to make this task even easier.
- When mixing the egg yolk filling, be sure to season it to taste. This will help to bring out the flavors of the other ingredients.
- If you are using a piping bag to fill the egg whites, be sure to use a large tip. This will make it easier to fill the eggs and create a more even shape.
- Garnish the stuffed eggs with fresh herbs, spices, or grated cheese before serving. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
