Susan Spungens Deviled Eggs Recipes

THE BEST DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the eggs in a single layer in a wide saucepan, cover with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely, then carefully peel them.
• Dip a clean kitchen towel in a small bowl of warm water. Wipe the blade of your knife with the towel to warm it up and to wet the blade. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise, one at a time, wiping the blade clean between each egg. (The warm, wet blade will give you clean cuts.) Remove the yolks to a medium bowl. Mash the yolks with a whisk. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce if using and salt and pepper to taste. Whisk until very smooth. Transfer to a large resealable plastic bag or disposable pastry bag and snip off one corner with scissors.
• Place the egg whites on a platter. Pipe the filling evenly into the egg whites. Top with chives and a sprinkle of paprika. Refrigerate for 20 to 25 minutes prior to serving.

Steps:

• Place eggs in the bottom of a large pot and cover with cold water.
• Bring water to a boil over high heat. Turn off heat, cover the pan and let the eggs sit for 20 minutes.
• Drain the eggs and rinse them with cold water. (Alternatively you can do baked hard boiled eggs in the oven or make Instant Pot hard boiled eggs if you prefer.)
• Peel the cooled eggs then cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yellow yolks and place them in a small bowl. Plate egg white halves on serving plate.
• Use a fork to mash the egg yolks. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Season the mixture to taste with extra salt and pepper as needed.
• Fill each egg half with the yolk mixture, mounding it up a little. Sprinkle with any desired toppings and serve.

Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate up to 4 hours. Before serving, garnish each with either parsley, paprika, or poppy seeds.
