Lemon Deviled Eggs Food

THE BEST DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise.
• Scoop out the egg yolks and transfer them to a small mixing bowl. Using a fork, mash the egg yolks completely until they form a fine powder. Add in the mayo (or Greek yogurt), lemon juice, Dijon, garlic powder, a generous pinch of salt and pepper, and stir until completely combined. Taste the mixture and season with extra salt and pepper, if needed. Or if the mixture seems too thick, add in some more mayo or a tiny splash of water.
• Using either a spoon or a small cookie scoop or a piping bag, fill the inside cavities of the egg whites with the yolk mixture. Sprinkle each deviled egg with a pinch of paprika and chives.
• Serve immediately and enjoy!

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.

• In a shallow dish, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Pour the milk and any oyster liquor into another shallow dish. Dip the oysters in the milk, then dredge them in the cornmeal mixture, shaking off the excess. If you like a thicker breading, repeat the process, dipping again in the milk and the cornmeal mixture.
• Working in batches, lower the breaded oysters into the hot oil and fry, turning frequently, until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
