Deviled Eggs With Tarragon Recipe

Deviled Eggs with Tarragon

From ebonyeyedenigma 17 years ago

Who doesn’t love chilled, creamy deviled eggs? The addition of tarragon and capers to our recipe creates the perfect foil for the silky, rich yolks.

Place eggs in a medium saucepan in a single layer and add enough cold water to cover eggs by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
Simmer for 9 minutes, then carefully drain eggs, running under cold water until cool enough to handle. Let cool in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
Crack and peel each hard-cooked egg. With a sharp knife, slice eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out yolks and place in a medium mixing bowl; reserve empty egg halves on a serving tray. Once all eggs have been yolked, cover the whites and transfer the tray to the refrigerator.
Mash yolks with a fork and add mayonnaise, paprika, Tabasco, mustard, capers, and tarragon. Mix thoroughly with a fork until smooth. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Remove egg white halves from the refrigerator and fill each with 1
heaping teaspoon of yolk mixture, rounding the tops with a spoon.
Garnish each with a sprinkling of minced chives and serve.

Marky,

I know, my mum use to make them for every holiday imaginable, when I was a child. I wish I had her recipe, she was heavy handed with the paprika and used some ingredient I never seen her put in, which was her secret...

I have never had Horseradish Deviled eggs, but I have had and made Wasabi Deviled Eggs, with Wasabi
roe on top or each; my Wee One loves them like that.

Be well,
Annie
