Description
A festive and colorful twist on traditional deviled eggs, perfect for patriotic celebrations.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Red food coloring
- Blue food coloring
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.
- After 12 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for about 5 minutes. This will make peeling easier.
- Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
- Mash the yolks with a fork and add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Divide the yolk mixture into two bowls. In one bowl, add a few drops of red food coloring and mix until you reach your desired shade. In the second bowl, add blue food coloring and mix until you achieve the desired color.
- Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill half of the egg whites with the red yolk mixture and the other half with the blue yolk mixture.
- Garnish each egg with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color.
- Chill the deviled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
- For a spicy kick, add a dash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper to the yolk mixture.
- You can also use different food coloring to create unique designs or themes for various holidays or events.
