Pennsylvania Dutch Deviled Eggs

Mom's Pennsylvania Dutch Deviled Eggs


Ingredients:
    Desired number of hard boiled eggs
    A couple Tablespoons of mayonnaise (Not Mircale Whip)
    About a Tablespoon of prepared mustard
    Paprika (optional for garnish)


Cooking Directions:
Slice the eggs in half down the long side of the egg.
Scoop out the yolk from each side into a bowl. Mash the yolk until it's the texture of a fine crumble. Add mayonnaise and mustard to desired texture. Spoon back into the whites of the eggs. Sprinkle with Paprika.

Chef's Notes:
These are so simple. Pennsylvania Dutch recipes tend to be bland but I like them.

I add a slap of sweetness with some pureed corn relish (although recently found sweet pickel relish to do an appropriate job) to the mixture and I omit mustard completely. They seem to satisfy the pickier "anti-deviled-egg crowd".

Actually, I'm part of the "anti-deviled-egg crowd". :lol: I'm not originally from Ohio, but upstate NY, Pennsylvania Dutch country. They don't mix sweet with their picnic favorites: macaroni salad, potato salad and deviled eggs. Sweet seems strange to me. :wink: But I've noticed most Ohio recipes are sweet. I think everyone uses Miracle Whip???
