Classic Deviled Eggs

Deviled eggs, a staple of potlucks, picnics, and holiday gatherings, have stood the test of time as a beloved appetizer. These simple yet elegant treats consist of hard-boiled eggs halved lengthwise, with their yolks mixed with mayonnaise, mustard, and seasonings, then piped back into the egg whites.

The origins of deviled eggs can be traced back to ancient Rome, where eggs were boiled, seasoned with spicy sauces, and typically served as a first course. Over time, the recipe evolved into the more familiar rendition we enjoy today.
