I’ve made my share of deviled eggs. Pretty pastel ones. Awesome Jell-O ones. And ya know, shelling all those eggs can be a job. So when I ran across a way of making no-boil deviled eggs, I immediately decided to give them a shot. What you end up with is that same great deviled egg flavor, but with a lot less trouble. This approach solves a whole lot of problems, specially if you’re setting out to make a big huge batch of eggs for a family get-together or picnis.
Great Results. And Easier.
The original recipe for no-boil deviled eggs called for cutting the cooked eggs into squares, which would’ve maximized the amount of finished eggs you would get. But, I thought that round ones would be more attractive. Plus, I’m not sure I’d be that great at cutting that many squares that would come out looking similar. I prefer a much easier way. Using a cooking cutter made it easy. And a bit fun, actually.
I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.
Also try my jalapeno popper and BBQ deviled eggs.
