Deviled eggs are a classic party appetizer that’s both visually appealing and deliciously satisfying. These bite-sized delights feature hard-boiled eggs that are carefully cut open, the yolks removed, and then mixed with a creamy filling. The resulting mixture is then piped back into the egg whites, creating a delightful contrast of textures and flavors.
Serves: 6
Ingredients:
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- Dash of pepper
- Paprika, for garnish
Directions:
- Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks.
- Mash the yolks in a bowl and mix in the mayonnaise. Add the relish, mustard, salt, and pepper, stirring until well combined.
- Spoon the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.
- Sprinkle with paprika for garnish.
Tips:
- For a decorative touch, pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites using a pastry bag fitted with a decorative tip.
- To prevent the eggs from wobbling on the plate, slice off a tiny bit from the bottom of the egg whites so they sit flat.
