How to Make A Little More Devil In These Eggs
- Place 6 large eggs in a single layer in a large saucepan.
- Add enough cold water to cover the eggs by 1 inch.
- Cover the saucepan with a lid.
- Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, immediately remove the saucepan from the heat. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Once cool enough to handle, gently peel the eggs under cold running water.
- Carefully cut the peeled eggs in half lengthwise.
- Using a spoon, gently remove the yolks and place them in a bowl.
- In a blender, combine the yolks with 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion, 2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained), and 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves.
- Blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 7-10 seconds. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip (or use a ziplock bag with a corner snipped off).
- Pipe the filling into the egg white halves.
- Garnish with extra fresh basil leaves.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
