How to Make Martha Stewart’s Creamy Deviled Eggs

 

Why This Recipe Stands Out

These deviled eggs are the perfect blend of creamy, tangy, and savory flavors, making them a crowd-pleasing appetizer for any occasion.

How to Make Martha Stewart’s Creamy Deviled Eggs
Step-by-Step Instructions

• 1. Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs

  • Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch.

  • Bring to a boil, then turn off heat, cover, and let sit for 9–12 minutes.

  • Transfer to an ice bath to cool, then peel carefully.

  2. Prepare the Filling
  

  • Slice eggs in half lengthwise and scoop yolks into a bowl.

  • Mash yolks with a fork, then mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  3. Fill the Egg Whites

  • Pipe the filling using a piping bag (or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off) for a polished look, or spoon it in for a rustic touch.

  4. Garnish & Serve

  • Dust with paprika and sprinkle with chives.

  • Add optional toppings like bacon or hot sauce.

  • Chill before serving for the best flavor.

Why This Recipe Works

• Mayonnaise creates a luxuriously creamy texture.

• Dijon mustard adds a subtle tangy kick.

• Vinegar or lemon juice brightens the flavor.

Delicious Variations

• Bacon & Cheddar – Mix in crumbled bacon and shredded cheese.

• Spicy – Add hot sauce or cayenne pepper.

• Herb-Lovers – Stir in fresh dill, chives, or parsley.

Pro Tips

 Easy peeling – Use slightly older eggs.
 Ultra-smooth filling – Press yolks through a fine-mesh sieve.
 Make ahead – Store filling and whites separately, then assemble before serving.
