Piquillo Deviled Eggs Recipes

BEST EVER DEVILED EGGS RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut peeled eggs in half lengthwise and place them on a serving platter. Remove yolks with a spoon and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
• Mash yolks to a fine crumb with a fork. Add 1/4 cup mayo, 2 tsp pickle juice, 1/2 tsp mustard, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper and 1/8 tsp garlic powder and mash together until creamy.
• Mix in finely diced pickles. Add more seasonings to taste if needed.
• Spoon a generous teaspoon of the egg mixture into each egg half. Garnish the top with a generous sprinkle of paprika and big pinch of browned bacon bits.

BEETY PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Bring the vinegar, 3/4 cup of the pickling liquid, the onions, 4 teaspoons salt, the mustard seeds, coriander seeds and sugar to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the salt and sugar. Reduce the heat, cover and let the brine simmer for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pierce each egg all the way through about 6 times with a cake tester or toothpick. Put 3 eggs and 1/4 of the beets in each of 2 glass quart jars with lids. Ladle in enough brine to cover. Add 3 more eggs to each jar, divide the remaining beets between them and ladle in more brine to cover, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Close the jars, let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.
• Serve the eggs and beets halved or quartered, with some of the onions and pickling liquid spooned on top. (The eggs will keep, covered by liquid and refrigerated, up to 5 days.)

THE BEST DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the eggs in a single layer in a wide saucepan, cover with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely, then carefully peel them.
• Dip a clean kitchen towel in a small bowl of warm water. Wipe the blade of your knife with the towel to warm it up and to wet the blade. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise, one at a time, wiping the blade clean between each egg. (The warm, wet blade will give you clean cuts.) Remove the yolks to a medium bowl. Mash the yolks with a whisk. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce if using and salt and pepper to taste. Whisk until very smooth. Transfer to a large resealable plastic bag or disposable pastry bag and snip off one corner with scissors.
• Place the egg whites on a platter. Pipe the filling evenly into the egg whites. Top with chives and a sprinkle of paprika. Refrigerate for 20 to 25 minutes prior to serving.

PICNIC DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Halve the eggs lengthwise and pop the yolks from the whites. Set the whites aside, rounded side up on a plate. Mix the yolks with the mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce in a medium bowl until the mixture is smooth and light. Add the celery, pickle, parsley, and season with the salt and hot sauce.
• Spoon the yolk mixture back into the whites and sprinkle with paprika. Serve now or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

BUFFALO DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Hard-boil a dozen eggs, let cool, then peel and halve lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks; mash with 1/4 cup each mayonnaise and finely chopped celery and 2 tablespoons Buffalo sauce. Spoon into the egg whites and top with crumbled blue cheese and chopped celery leaves.

BARBECUE DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Mash 6 hard-boiled egg yolks, 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons yellow mustard, a dash or two of hot sauce, and salt and pepper. Mix in 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce. Fill the egg whites with the yolk mixture; top with sliced scallions and paprika.

BUFFALO DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the eggs in cold water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover, turn off the heat and let sit for 13 minutes. Prepare an ice bath, drop the eggs into it and let sit for 3 minutes.
• Remove the eggs; peel and split lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks and put them in a medium bowl. Add the hot sauce, mayonnaise, sour cream and celery to the yolks and mix to combine. Pipe or scoop the filling back into the egg white cavities. Garnish with blue cheese, celery leaves and more hot sauce.

PICKLED DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Put eggs in a large pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to immediately transfer to a bowl filled with ice and water. Let cool, then peel.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, garlic, sugar, kosher salt, peppercorns and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and stir in onions.
• Spoon half of the onion mixture into a 2-quart jar or heatproof container. Add eggs and pour remaining onions and brine over the top. Let cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 3 days.
• Remove eggs from onion mixture and cut in half lengthwise. Scoop yolks into a mini-food processor or blender. Add 1 tablespoon of the pickling liquid, mayonnaise, mustard, pepper and a large pinch of kosher salt. Process until smooth. Spoon into egg halves, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, top with some of the pickled onion and serve.

CLASSIC DEVILLED EGGS

Steps:

• Put the eggs in a pan of just simmering water and cook for 10 mins. Turn off the heat, and leave the eggs to rest in the hot water for 2 mins. Drain, then transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water and leave to cool. Peel the eggs and slice in half, then scoop the yolks out into a bowl with the mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, spring onions, celery salt and cayenne pepper. Mash everything together until smooth, then spoon into a piping bag fitted with a plain round nozzle.
• Pipe the mixture into the hollowed-out eggs, or carefully spoon into the middles using a small spoon. Sprinkle over some chives, if using, then serve.
