Deviled Beets Recipes

FRESH DILLED BEETS

Steps:

• Place the beets into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry until cool enough to handle. While the beets are boiling, whisk together the vinegar and sugar until the sugar has dissolved; set aside.
• Once cool enough to handle, remove the skins from the beets and cut the tops off. Cut the beets into cubes or wedges, and add to the vinegar mixture. Season with the dill, clove, and allspice; toss until coated. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate the beets overnight before serving.

BEET DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Pour the brine of the pickled beets into a small saucepan (reserve the beets). Add the apple cider vinegar and brown sugar. Bring to a low boil and stir until the sugar dissolves. Let cool completely.
• Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a boil. With a ladle, slowly lower the eggs into the water one by one. Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook for 10 minutes; drain. When the eggs are cool enough to handle, remove the shells.
• Place the eggs in a small bowl or a jar. Pour the cooled beet brine mixture over the eggs. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours and up to 24 hours. The longer the eggs are in the brine, the deeper the shade of pink they will be.
• Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a food processor. Arrange the whites cut-side up on a serving platter. To the food processor, add the mayo, mustard, salt, pepper and one of the pickled beet slices. Process until well blended and smooth. Taste for seasoning. If you want a deeper pink, add another beet to the mixture and process (reserve the remaining beets for another use).
• Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag. With scissors, snip off a bottom corner from the bag. Using the bag like a pastry bag, pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites. Garnish with minced fresh chives. Cover loosely and chill until ready to serve.

BEET-PICKLED DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• In a medium pot, mix 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, and 3 cups water. Add the beet and bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let cool slightly. Pour into a large heat-safe jar or bowl (including beet). Add eggs, stir, and refrigerate at least 3 hours (stirring occasionally) or overnight for a darker shade of pink.
• Remove eggs from liquid. Halve eggs (reserving the whites) and gently transfer the yolks to a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon vinegar, mayonnaise, herbs, and anchovy paste to the yolks. Season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, then spoon or pipe the filling into the egg whites.
• Place the chiles, remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, the remaining pinch each of sugar and salt in a bowl and let stand 15 minutes. Drain the chiles, then sprinkle over the deviled eggs. Sprinkle with additional herbs, if desired. Serve.

• Carefully pour hot liquid over eggs. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Cover jar tightly with lid. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving.

DEVILED EGGS AND PICKLED BEETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Wrap beets in foil, crimping tightly to seal; place on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender, 45-55 minutes. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel beets and cut into 1" slices. Transfer to a wide, shallow container.
• Bring vinegar, sugar, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, cloves, bay leaf, 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, and 1/2 cup water to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 10 minutes; pour liquid over beets. Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.
• Slice eggs lengthwise in half and spoon yolks into a bowl. Mash yolks with a fork, then stir in the mayonnaise. Press mixture through a strainer into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon strained beet-pickling juice, horseradish, and a pinch of salt. Spoon or pipe mixture into each egg white.
• Finely dice enough drained pickled beets to yield about 1/2 cup (reserve any remaining beets for another use). Garnish each egg with diced beets and chives.
