Print Recipe

These Savory Southern Deviled Eggs are a creamy, tangy twist on a classic favorite, perfect for gatherings. With a blend of rich flavors and a touch of paprika, they are sure to be a hit at your next event.

Ingredients

  • Eggs – 6 large
  • Mayonnaise – ¼ cup
  • Yellow mustard – 1 tablespoon
  • White vinegar – 1 teaspoon
  • Salt – ¼ teaspoon
  • Black pepper – ¼ teaspoon
  • Paprika – for garnish
  • Pickle relish – 1 tablespoon

Instructions

  1. Start by hard boiling the eggs. Place 6 large eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water, ensuring the water is at least an inch above the eggs. Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Once boiling, cover the pot with a lid, remove it from heat, and let the eggs sit for exactly 12 minutes. This guarantees perfectly cooked yolks without any greenish discoloration.
  3. After 12 minutes, prepare an ice bath in a large bowl with ice and cold water. Carefully transfer the eggs from the pot to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them sit for about 5 minutes to cool completely.
  4. Once cooled, crack the eggs gently on a hard surface, then peel them under running water to make the process easier. This helps to remove the shells cleanly without damaging the egg whites.
  5. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl, making sure the whites remain intact.
  6. Add ¼ cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon white vinegar, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and 1 tablespoon pickle relish to the bowl with the yolks. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy. A fork works perfectly for this!
  7. Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if needed. If you prefer a bit more tang, add a dash more vinegar or mustard.
  8. Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture. Don’t worry about being perfect; a little rustic charm goes a long way!
  9. Finally, sprinkle the tops with paprika for that classic deviled egg look and an extra touch of flavor. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving.

Nutrition

Keywords: For best results, let the filled eggs chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. You can substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise for a lighter option.
