Top 7 Best Deviled Egg Recipes

You don't need a special occasion or reason to make deviled eggs. Add them to a meal, make them for a weekend snack or game day gathering, for a spring brunch, or with a summer picnic.

How to Make Hard-Boiled Eggs

Place fresh eggs in a single layer in a saucepan. Cover with water to a depth of about 1 inch above the eggs.

Place the pan over high heat and bring to a boil. Cover the pan and then immediately remove from heat. Don't lift the  lid.

Let the eggs stand for about 16 to 18 minutes,...MORE and then drain off hot water; cover with cold water and a few ice cubes. Let stand until completely cooled before peeling.

The freshest eggs will be a little more difficult to peel. To make peeling easier, roll the egg over the countertop while applying a little pressure to create many fine cracks. Begin peeling at the large end under cold running water.

Hard-cooked eggs in the shell can be stored in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks, or up to a week if peeled.
