Deviled Eggs Three Ways
Yesterday I brought you How to Make the Perfect Hard Boiled Egg. Today, we're using those hard-boiled eggs to make a Southern favorite—Deviled Eggs.
Deviled Eggs are an Easter family tradition. This year I'm playing with different flavors for three different stuffed egg variations that are all delicious.
First up is what I like to call the Traditionalist. This the the quintessential Deviled Egg. No frills—just like your (and my) grandmother makes.
I made these over Thanksgiving and added Benton's Bacon Jam as a garnish and it was AMAZING. A must try.
