Easy Classic Deviled Eggs
Deviled eggs are the ultimate classic appetizer and finger food. This version adds sour cream and a splash of pickle juice for extra creaminess and tang.
Ingredients
- 12 extra-large egg
For the filling
- egg yolks from boiled eggs
- ½ cup mayonnaise (I used Hellmann's)
- 2 tbsp sour cream
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1-2 tbsp pickle juice to taste
- ¼ tsp sugar (optional)
- black pepper to taste
- salt to taste
- 2 tbsp chives finely chopped
- smoked paprika for garnish
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the water with a slotted spoon then reduce the heat.
- Allow to simmer for 12 minutes. While the eggs boil, fill a large bowl with ice water.
- Once the eggs are boiled, carefully remove with a slotted spoon and place into the bowl of ice water. Allow to cool completely, approximately 15 minutes.
- Peel the eggs then slice in half.
- Remove the egg yolks with a teaspoon and place in a mixing bowl.
- Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, pickle juice, sugar and season with salt and pepper. Mash with a fork or blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
- Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle. Pipe the filling into the egg white halves. Alternatively, fill each egg using two teaspoons.
- Scatter over chives and sprinkle with paprika. Serve immediately or refrigerate covered with plastic until ready to serve.
