How to Make Martha Stewart’s Creamy Deviled Eggs

by

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.
