ULTIMATE DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover completely with cool water. Bring to a boil and then cover and remove from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 9 minutes, then drain and cool in an ice bath.
• Peel the eggs, then halve lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Add the mayonnaise, Pickled Shallots, gherkins, mustard and vinegar, and use a fork to mash the ingredients together until smooth. Alternatively, use a food processor. Add the chives, parsley, bacon, scallion whites and some salt and pepper.
• Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a medium round tip or a resealable plastic bag with one corner of the bag snipped off. Pipe the filling into the egg whites, then top each with scallion greens, pickled shallots, some paprika and a sprinkle of bacon.
• Place the vinegar, 1/4 cup water, the sugar, salt and coriander seeds in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil.
• Place the shallots in a medium heatproof bowl and pour the hot liquid over the top. Cool to room temperature, and then cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

QUICK PICKLED EGGS AND BEETS

Steps:

EGG SALAD WITH SPRING HERBS

Steps:

• Cover the eggs with cold water in a saucepan, bring them to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let stand for 5 or 6 minutes, 7 minutes if at high altitude.
• Pour off the hot water, rinse the eggs with cool water, then peel and chop the eggs. If you want the zesty hit of the shallot, toss it, once diced, with just a few drops vinegar and let stand for a few minutes. The color will change right away to a soft pink. (If there is excess vinegar, drain it off when you add the shallots to the egg mixture).
• Finely chop the herbs and set aside.
• Mash the eggs with a fork until crumbly. Add the herbs into the a bowl with the eggs, and add mayonnaise. If you used commercial mayonnaise you might not need much salt. Add the pickled shallot and mix. Taste, add 1/4 teaspoon, then taste again. Season with pepper.
• Pile the egg salad into a serving bowl and garnish with chive blossoms, if available, or serve atop thick slices of rustic toast.
