Deviled Eggs
What came first the chicken or the egg? Well, as you ponder that
question, I will be sharing on the latter. The Incredible, edible, egg! A
gluten free, protein packed, super food. We scramble it, we poach it,
we fry it, we dye it. We love our eggs! Our country alone goes through
close to 5 million eggs a year, and that isn’t counting back yard
chickens.
My recipe share for spring :
“ The Deviled Egg ”
Okay, here are some fun facts: The honor of the stuffed egg dates
back to Ancient Rome, Yes, the Italians win the prize for the oldest
recipe for a stuffed Egg.
I found recipes from all over Europe, explaining the traditions
surrounding the egg, and the ingredients to make them.
The French call them: Mimosa. Hungarians call them: toltott tojas,
which means stuffed eggs. Sweden calls them: Fyllda agg, also stuffed
eggs.
We Americans call them: “Deviled Eggs.”
As the recipe traveled around Europe, and immigrants began to travel
to the new world, recipes and traditions came with them.
Eventually, the hot spicy version was introduced to the world with the
addition of cayenne pepper, giving birth to the name “ Deviled Eggs.”
Depending on where you come from, stuffing of the egg is a matter of
ingredients on hand. I have included a basic recipe here. Stuffed eggs
are a family favorite of ours, we use our extra dyed Easter eggs for our
Sunday dinner appetizer. We have added a variety of tasty ingredients
over the years, We are European, Latino, Japanese, French, Puerto
Rican, and Middle Eastern so, I can advise you to be creative. The sky
is the limit on your stuffing. When I get really creative and make Salsa
deviled eggs or Chorizo deviled eggs or Wasabi deviled eggs.
What can I say,
The Devil made me do it!
Happy Easter, Happy Spring
Happy Egg Hunting!
