Perfectly Pink Deviled Eggs


  • Total Time: 27 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

A colorful twist on the classic deviled eggs, featuring a vibrant pink hue from beet juice.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Beet juice or pickled beet juice for coloring
  • Paprika for garnish

Instructions

  1. First, hard boil the eggs. Place them in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes. Once done, cool the eggs under cold running water or in an ice bath, then peel the eggs carefully.
  2. After peeling, slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. Place the yolks in a mixing bowl.
  3. In the bowl, mash the yolks with a fork until they’re fine and crumbly. Then, mix in the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning according to your taste.
  4. For the fun part, add a bit of beet juice to the yolk mixture. Start with a small amount and mix to achieve your desired shade of pink.
  5. Once you reach the perfect hue, it’s time to fill the egg whites. You can spoon the mixture back in or use a piping bag for a more polished look.
  6. After filling, sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the top for garnish.
  7. Serve these pretty eggs immediately or refrigerate them for later enjoyment!
