In order to honour Bob Casale, the late Devo guitarist and keyboardist, I decided to devote this week to Devo. Not only does this recipe offer ample alliteration, I always found deviled eggs a little weird – just like Devo. A great finger food for Devo parties!
3 eggs
1 dill pickle – diced finely
1 heaping tbs mayo
Salt
Pepper
Fresh or dried dill
- The most important part here is boiling the eggs. For perfect eggs everytime, place the eggs ina pot with lots of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Allow the eggs to boil for 1 minute only. Once this is done, remove the pot from the heat, pop on a lid, and allow the eggs to sit for 30 minutes. It seems like a long time, but worth it.
- Meanwhile, put your mayo, pickle and s & p in a bowl.
- Cool down the eggs by running them under cold water. I also through some ice cubes or freezer pack (or just water bottles filled with ice) into a bowl with water and the eggs.
- Peel the eggs. Slice the white part lengthwise aroudnt he egg – just as you would with an avocado. Twist the white parts in opposite directions and allow the yolk to fall out into your bowl of mayo.
- Mash up yolks and mayo and pickles. Scoop into hollowed egg whites.
- Dust with fresh or dried dill.
