PERFECT DEVILED EGGS



Perfect Deviled Eggs image

These appeared on the table at every holiday and every gathering when I was growing up. My children will stand in front of the refrigerator and eat one after another (if I don't catch them). You can spice these up with country or creole mustard, a few jots of hot sauce (or a bunch of hot sauce!), and a sprig of parsley. It's just pretty.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest eggs possible. Older eggs will have a less vibrant yolk color and may not peel as easily.
  • Hard-boil the eggs perfectly. Overcooked eggs will have a chalky yolk and be difficult to peel. Undercooked eggs will have a runny yolk and may not be safe to eat.
  • Cool the eggs quickly after boiling. This will help prevent the yolk from turning green.
  • Peel the eggs carefully. Use a sharp knife to score the egg around the equator, then gently peel the shell away from the egg.
  • Make the filling ahead of time. This will give the flavors time to meld.
  • Pipe the filling into the egg whites. This will give the deviled eggs a more elegant look.
  • Garnish the deviled eggs with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include paprika, chives, bacon bits, or caviar.

Conclusion:

Deviled eggs are a classic party appetizer that are easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect deviled eggs that will impress your guests.
