Have you ever tried to eat hard-boiled eggs in different look and taste?

Maybe you did, but in my case, I just found out recently that we can transform our hard-boiled mere looking egg into a more appealing version.

Never too late to learn something new. So in my case I did try this humble deviled egg recipe and the result is quite astonishing.

Yes you can easily find many deviled egg recipes out there, and the variation is unlimited. Actually, this dish was long been created as a more stylish way of improving the old fashion hard-boiled eggs.

You can serve them during family gathering, any casual or special occasion, offering them to your guests in a party would become a better and safer choice.

How this dish got its name in the first place? Where deviled egg recipe first created? Dated way back in the ancient Rome era, and has been widely popularized all over Europe with its distinctive local name.

For example people in Hungary would call it tojas, while Netherland is gevuld ei, Sweden will recognize this dish as fyllda agg, and so on.


The name deviled was first introduced to show well seasoned fried and boiled dishes.

Deviled was the last version to name this great dish as a result of evolving processes from the culinary term in the past.

Anyway, what really important is that this dish is so delicious, and somehow relatively easy to prepare, why we need to worry about the name anyway?

Just like some countries in the world they came up with their own name, maybe we can just call it stuffed egg, easy to comprehend but taste is amazing.

Of course this is probably NOT the best deviled egg recipe you could ever create.

However I think this is perhaps the simpler version to prepare.

Anyway, there are many other ingredients you can add.

For example if you want to make it spicier you might want to add curry powder instead of the mustard.

If you want to add more flavors, you may need to add finely chopped onion.

Other than that to get fresher flavor, you can sprinkle chopped parsley.

How about more heat?

Try to mix the mustard, mayonnaise, with pickled jalapeno, cumin, and finish with cilantro on the top.

Nevertheless, you can try a different combination of ingredients, you could ever imagine.
