These Deviled Eggs with Relish are made special by the little added sweetness and tanginess. Quick and easy to make that are perfect for snacks, finger-food or appetizer and is a definite party pleaser.
I see a lot of articles about the benefits of eating eggs recently, my Facebook has been constantly bombarded with these 'boiled egg diet' over the last months. Which is not bad actually, as eggs are healthy and I am glad the myth about eating (more) eggs could result in having heart problems is finally being put to rest.
I remember while growing up, we were only allowed to eat max of three eggs in a week because my Papa was afraid that we will suffer from heart diseases in our old age especially as it is in our family history. Glad that is a thing of past because I love eggs.
But eating just hard-boiled egg could become boring fast. So why not liven it up by turning them into this yummy Deviled Eggs with relish. I am not sure though if they qualify for the 'boiled-egg diet' but they are perfect for a lot of other things.
Oooopppss!!! You can see from this photo above that my eggs were a bit overcooked. Ok, maybe not everyone will know it but they are and you can tell this by the grayish hue on the yolks. I was busy editing a video in the other room, trying to multitask, and completely forgot to set the timer and I didn't know how much time has passed so to be on the safe side, I cooked them a bit longer. No worries, a little- overcooked hard-boiled eggs are totally fine to eat and nothing much is different with the taste, only the color of the yolk is not so nice.
I know that there are different methods of cooking eggs, I used to do it by adding the eggs to the boiling water and cook it for a certain number of minutes depending on how I like my eggs, hard or soft.
But because of this incident, I opted to try a different technique and this one is for keeps as it seems to be the foolproof solution especially if you are forgetful like me. You can read more about it here: How to make perfect hard-boiled eggs?
