Deviled eggs are a classic dish that make for great hors d'oeuvres for a party. These are simple and easy, yet packed with flavor, spiciness, and a smoky finish. Buy the eggs about a week in advance for the best results when peeling them.

Ingredients

  • 24 eggs room temperature
  • 5 Tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp dijon or jalapeño mustard
  • 3 Tbsp candied jalapeño relish
  • 1 Tbsp pickled relish
  • 3-4 grinds sea salt
  • 2-3 grinds black pepper
  • smoked paprika

Instructions

  • Place the eggs in a single layer in the bottom of a large saucepan. Fill the pan with water such that there is at least an inch of water above the eggs. The more eggs that are in the pan, the more water you should have covering them.
  • Heat the pan on high, and bring the water to a full rolling boil. Turn the heat down to a simmer and let stand for a minute. Then turn the heat off. Let the pan sit on the warm burner, covered, for 10-12 minutes.
  • Strain the water out of the pan, and run cold water over the eggs immediately or place in a bowl of ice water to prevent them from cooking any further.
  • Peel the eggs once they have cooled, being gentle so that the outer surfaces are smooth and not torn.
  • Cut the eggs in half long-ways and carefully remove their yolks, placing them into a bowl. Place the white halves on a separate plate.
  • Mash up the yolks. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, candied jalapeños, sweet relish, and sea salt, stirring to combine after each addition. The mixture should be smooth and creamy. Feel free to adjust these ingredients to your taste.
  • Put a spoonful of the yolk mixture in each of the hollows of the egg whites and arrange on a platter. Sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika on each egg and serve.
