Classic Deviled Eggs

There is some debate on who exactly invented the “deviled egg“. It could be anyone from Ancient Romans, to medieval merchants, to Jacques Pepin’s mother. Either way there is no denying that everyone loves a deviled egg. I remember as a child that I had to restrain my self from eating all of them, because my mother had made enough for everyone to have 2 a piece. There were never any left and usually the first thing to go.

There are many superior qualities to this dish; It’s cheap, it looks pretty, tastes good, easily eaten with you fingers, and it is super versatile. The recipe below is a very basic recipe, a base if you will. Experiment with adding different flavors that you have on hand. Cayenne pepper, pickle relish, hot chow chow, or fresh herbs such as basil or dill all make wonderful variations of this dish.

If you want to get really traditional, grab your Grandmother’s egg plate…I’m sure she has one somewhere. Mine has swans on it.

    Um…denying! I am a mayo-phobe, and I can’t stand the texture of boiled egg yoke. I wouldn’t touch a deviled egg with a ten foot pole, but I’m a freak like that. My husband could eat a dozen on his own so maybe I’ll use this and make him some.

    I bought a deviled egg platter Saturday so I could make deviled eggs for Christmas. I’m kinda doing a retro Christmas dinner this year and you’re right…who doesn’t like deviled eggs!
