happy deviled egg day!

you'd think deviled egg day would be the day after easter? but, i guess it's today so that we can use the left over hard boiled eggs made for our trick or treaters. despite the demonic name, deviling an egg has nothing to do with unholy possession or selling ones yolk to satin. it refers to any food being purred with hot spices.

classic deviled eggs feature egg yolks mixed with mayonnaise, pepper, and mustard. contemporary culinary adventurers have taken them to new heights with additions of everything from wasabi, crab meat, salmon, and caviar to cheese, salsa, chutney, truffles and exotic spices.

so, dust off your deviled egg trays and start deviling! i know i am!
