How do you make deviled eggs?

Deviled eggs are made from the base of hard-boiled eggs. So, start by hard boiling your eggs. Cool and Peel your eggs. Slice the eggsin half lengthwise (this is important), and then remove the yolks. Place the egg yolks in a bowl, and careful place the egg whites on a platter, cut side up. Mash the yolks and add mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well. We’ve found that using a hand blender works really well to make the yolk mixture extra creamy. Please the mixture in a plastic bag, cut the tip off, and pipe the mixture into the empty cavities of the eggs on the platter.

1. Step 1 – Hard-boil your eggs. To do this, place a dozen eggs in a large pan and cover with water. Bring water to a boil and boil eggs for 12-15 minutes.
2. Step 2 – Drain water from pan and run cold water over the eggs to cool them off. Let sit for a few minutes to cool, or place in the refrigerator until you are ready to prepare your deviled eggs.
3. Step 3– Remove the shells on your eggs and rinse eggs to make sure there are no remaining shell on the eggs.
4. Step 4 – Slice eggs lengthwise; place yolks in a bowl and the egg whites on a platter cut side facing up.
5. Step 5 – Mash egg yolks with a fork.
6. Step 6 – Add 4 TBS mayonnaise, 2 tsp mustard, 2 tsp vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste to the yolk. Mix thoroughly, or use a hand blender to make extra creamy.
7. Step 7 – Place mixture in a plastic bag and snip the end with scissors. Pipe into cavities of egg whites. Garnish with paprika.

Why are They Called Deviled Eggs?

Have you ever wondered why deviled eggs are called deviled eggs? We did too! It appears that the first references to using the word “deviled” in association to food occurred in the 19th century in association with spicy food, including eggs. Over time the term “deviled eggs” came to mean hard-boiled eggs prepared with spices and mustard mixed with the yolks and then re-stuffed in the egg. Other common terms for “deviled eggs” are “angel eggs”, “stuffed eggs”, “Russian eggs”, “dressed eggs”, and “picnic eggs”.
