Aren't they amazingly beautiful?!
So, when you’re going to someone’s house for a BBQ and you want to bring a side, this is it!!!! Not only do people love deviled eggs, you will get extra bonus points for making them look incredibly awesome and taste better than any before. Always remember, people eat with their eyes.
Ingredients
This is what you need for awesome deviled eggs!
- dozen eggs (I always make a couple extra in case they somehow get messed up)
- 4 tablespoons mayo
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- bacon (approximately 5 strips)
- 1 teaspoon of splenda or sugar (optional)
- crinkle cutter (this is another one of my favorite kitchen gadgets)
- white deviled egg plate
- large ziplock baggie
- Get a large pot and fill with hot water. Put eggs in pot with lid and bring to a boil. Once it is brought to a boil, keep it at a low boil for 12 minutes.
- Remove from pan and place in large bowl of ice water for five minutes.
Make sure it has a lot of ice in it. This keeps the eggs from continuing to cook.
- Leave in ice water for approximately 5 minutes
- Crack eggs and take off the shells
- Cut egg in half with crinkle cutter
Isn't this a beauty?! Notice the inside is all yellow and not green or brown. It is perfect when you follow my boiling instructions!
- Take all of the hardened yolks out of the eggs and put them in your large bag.
- Press on yolks with hand until the lumps are all gone.
This is the hard yolk of eggs in bag and crumbled all together.
- Add your mayo, mustard, salt (or bacon salt if you have it), pepper, vinegar and sugar
- Mix all together well
- Add more mayo if necessary
- Cut the corner off the bag (start really small and keep cutting if you need)
This is about how much should be cut off the tip.
- Fill each egg with mix and make a circular motion so your eggs look like these:
The piping makes a big difference!
- Chop up your bacon and sprinkle on top and wahlaaaaa, you’re done!
