How to Make Deviled Eggs
Tips for Perfect Eggs
Regardless of the cooking method, don’t skip the ice bath. It stops the cooking process, keeping the yolks bright yellow, and helps make them easier to peel. Eggs can be boiled a few days in advance. For an extra smooth filling, pulse it in a food processor if you’d like. Don’t overmix it. Place the filling in a piping bag or a sandwich bag and snip off the corner to make it pretty.
Serving and Storing Deviled Eggs
Hard-boiled eggs can be made ahead. The halved whites and egg filling can be prepared and stored separately for up to 2 days in advance or until ready to assemble. Keep the filling in a zippered bag, snip off a corner, and pipe into egg whites. Easy peasy! Keep leftovers refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Mash the leftovers to make the best egg salad ever!
