Origin of deviled eggs
Deviled eggs, also known as stuffed eggs, first appeared in American cookbooks in the mid-19th century, but the origin can be traced back to ancient Rome where eggs were boiled and seasoned with spicy sauces, as described in history.com. Today, deviled eggs are a staple during Easter.
Stats of eggs
Around 250 million cases of eggs are produced each year in the USA, according to the United Egg Producers. Around 180 million eggs are purchased each year for Easter alone.
What does the classic deviled egg contain
The classic deviled egg includes a mixture of mustard and mayonnaise, sprinkled with paprika. However, chefs and home cooks like to experiment with various flavor twists, including ingredients like seeds, bacon, hot sauce, avocado, pickles, dill, crab meat and more.
Crush this traditional recipe using French’s Classic Yellow Mustard and garlic powder for a tangy-sweet flavor and silky-smooth texture. Top with paprika and enjoy.
What could be better than deviled eggs with crumbled bacon? How about adding in smoked paprika for another layer of smokiness and a little color. That’s the perfect appetizer for Easter brunch.
Kick it up a notch by adding Frank’s RedHot to these deviled eggs. It’ll add a tangy kick to the classic that can please any crowd.
Switch up the norm and add chopped avocado, Greek yogurt, yellow mustard, and crispy fried onions to create this flavorful deviled egg. Top with some cilantro for a pop of color.
Getting the inspiration from the flavors of the Mediterranean, this deviled egg features Parmesan cheese, herbs like oregano and basil and a bright garnish of diced tomatoes.
This egg is another popular party dish. Swap out the mayo with sour cream and add Dijon mustard for richness. Then top with a crispy onion crunch to leave guests wanting more. Don’t forget to sprinkle some paprika.
