DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Slice eggs in half lengthwise, and carefully remove yolks. Mash yolks with mayo. Add relish, mustard, salt and pepper; stir well. Spoon yolk mixture into egg whites. Sprinkle with Paprika.
• Tips; for pretty eggs, pipe yolk mixture into egg whites with a decorative pastry tip.
• If you want your eggs, to stand up on the plate, and not wobble around, slice off a very small bit on the bottom of the white, so they sit flat.

SPANISH DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Mash 6 hard-boiled egg yolks, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon diced jarred piquillo peppers plus 1 tablespoon liquid from the jar, 1/8 teaspoon hot smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon hot water, and salt and pepper. Lay 1 strip serrano ham in each egg white, then top with the yolk mixture. Sprinkle with more paprika.

LEMON CAPER DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a boil over high heat. With a ladle, slowly lower the eggs into the water, one by one. Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook for 10 minutes. Drain. When they are cool enough to handle, peel the eggs.
• Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a food processor. Arrange the whites, cut-side up, on a serving platter. Blitz the egg yolks by themselves for about 10 seconds. To the yolks, add the mayo, mustard, capers, salt, pepper, garlic and lemon zest. Process until well blended and smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary.
• Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag, then use scissors to snip off the tip of one of the bottom corners to form a small hole. Pipe the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites or store the egg whites and yolk mixture separately in the fridge until ready to fill and serve, one to two days. Garnish the filled eggs with paprika and parsley and serve immediately.
