Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Hard boiled eggs.

Simple enough, but I'm thinking some of the boys make them pretty tasty.

Such as deviled eggs? I use a deviled egg seasoning mix from Hi Mountain seasonings, Riverton, WY. Mix seasoning with the mayo and dampen just enough with apple cider vinegar to mix and to give it a little zing. A little smoked Spanish paprika on top if you like. A dozen don't last long.

Pickled eggs are the bomb.

Eggs remain one of the best food values on the planet.

In more ways than one.

Jeff O had a great pickled egg recipe, but I haven't seen him around lately.

I put hardboiled eggs in the juice left in a dill pickle jar after I eat all the pickles. After soaking for a week the outside takes on a greenish tint and gets tougher, perfect for making devilled eggs.

Cut egg in half, scoop yolks into bowl and crumble.

Add Miracle Whip, Sweet Pickle relish, lemon pepper, salt and a little mustard(prepared or dry) all to taste. Mix but don't turn to mush. Scoop back into the egg halves. Dust tops with paprika.

Enjoy

My wife turned me onto a neat trick, baking the eggs in the shell instead of boiling to make hard boiled eggs.

Egg salad sandwich; diced hard boiled eggs, Miracle Whip, green olives. It gets no better..............

dang, now I gotta run to the store and buy a dozen eggs. Y'all have done flung a craving on me.

A pinch or two of celery salt, makes it just a wee bit better, trust me

Celery salt in deviled eggs too ! Woo Hoo !!!!

Very good addition.

Dump the Miracle Schmeg and use real mayo.

Being one who insists on only the finest of ingredients, etc., would have to agree.

The death combo, HB eggs, MGD and my Father-in-law... I won't touch 'em.

sse, we have not butted heads for a few days now, So,
I agree the best of anything is made with the best ingredients.
Here is "the" thing.
I have felt a good cook can make something good with subpar beginnings. Example, taking a cheap,tough cut of meat, and making it tasty.

k, but I don't like miracle whip...

My mother used to make a gravy with sliced boiled eggs in it and serve it over toast for breakfast.
I've tried to duplicate it a few times over the years but no cigar.
Course,,, maybe I was just young and hungry and it really wasn't that good to start with:(

Anyone else ever heard of that kind of concoction?

Real mayo as in made from scratch?

The basis for me is to boil it right in the first instance. I poke o hole in the shell to let the air out and drop them in warm water. I bring the water to a boil and then boil for one minute. I turn off the heat and let them sit in that really hot water for 10 minutes. I then drain and run cold water on them, or put them in an ice bath for deviled eggs. They turn out just right, every time. And by just right I mean not over done - I don't like boild eggs when the yolk starts to turn blue.

I have a similar memory of a recipe lost that involved beets and HB egg...gonna look again for it....

There is hope for you, oleo-man!
