deviled eggs!


deviled eggs. easy, pretty & delicious. i figure these taste better if the yolks are piped in decoratively. first, go by a cake decorating supply store & pick up a $1.89 large piping tip and a few 20¢ disposable piping bags. i went to Vanness. now you’re ready to make pretty deviled eggs. hard boiled eggs are easier to screw up than you’d think. if the hard cooked egg has a green ring around the yolk, you failed. i steam my eggs in my cuisinart rice cooker, but you can make yours old school. place eggs in pot, cover with cold water, bring to a boil, place lid on pot, remove from heat & set your egg timer to 12 minutes. submerge eggs into a bowl of iced water to stop cooking. now that we’ve got that out of the way, peel eggs, & cut in half with a wet knife. remove yolks into a mixing bowl, add mayo, dill, beau monde seasoning (or salt), pepper, a pinch of ground cayenne and if you want, add some sour cream and mix until smooth. cut the tip off the disposable piping bag to fit in metal tip.

be careful not to cut too much. the metal tip should fit snugly. fold down bag & fill with yolk mixture. unfold bag. gently squeeze bag to force yolk mixture toward the tip. pipe. you’re done. ain’t life grand?
