Classic Deviled Eggs: The Easy Thanksgiving Appetizer Everyone Loves
No holiday table feels complete without a platter of deviled eggs. They are creamy, a little tangy, easy to make ahead and gone within minutes of hitting the buffet.
Why Deviled Eggs Never Go Out of Style
Deviled eggs have been a party staple for generations. "Deviled" simply refers to a spicy, zesty seasoning, and the combination of silky yolk filling and tender egg white is hard to beat. They work for Thanksgiving, Easter, picnics and game days alike.
The Secret to a Silky Filling
Cool your eggs fully in ice water before peeling, and mash the yolks while they are still smooth and dry. A touch of tang from mustard and vinegar balances the richness, and piping the filling instead of spooning it gives you that bakery-style look.
Make Ahead, Serve Fresh
Keep the filling and the egg whites separate in the fridge and fill just before serving. That way everything stays fresh, and the platter looks as good as it tastes.
