Deviled eggs or devilled eggs, also known as stuffed eggs, Russian eggs, or dressed eggs, are hard-boiled eggs that have been shelled, cut in half, and filled with a paste made from the egg yolks mixed with other ingredients such as mayonnaise and mustard.
Instructions
Step 1
Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan; add water to depth of 3 inches. Bring to a boil; cover, remove from heat, and let stand 15 minutes.
Step 2
Immediately drain and fill the saucepan with cold water and ice.
Step 3
Firmly tap each egg on the counter until cracks form all over the shell. Peel under cold running water.
Step 4
Cut eggs in half lengthwise, and carefully remove yolks. Mash yolks with mayonnaise. Add mustard, relish, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
Step 5
Spoon egg yolk mixture into egg whites. Garnish with paprika, if desired.
