This is how my mom ALWAYS made deviled eggs, and I have to say it’s the only way I like them. But if you like them with mustard, feel free to add some. (Just don’t tell me you did) : ) And some people like to make the filling super smooth and pipe it in the eggs, but I think this way is texturally better and looks better to me.

Thanks so much for posting this! You’re a stiany saver! I tried numerous methods before yours and none seemed to work. My eggs looked just like yours in the beginning. I’m not afraid to hard boil eggs any longer. Yay! http://ntnywlcdbpo.com [url=http://ikusiypkmx.com]ikusiypkmx[/url] [link=http://edmkzxr.com]edmkzxr[/link]
