Classic Deviled Egg Recipe - Real Life Dinner (1)

There are basically a million different ways you can make a deviled egg. I love seeing all the different recipes for deviled eggs floating around Pinterest. And as good as they all look, with their bacon and avocado, capers, and all sorts of other goodies, I still find myself going back to my good old, tried and true, Classic Deviled Egg Recipe. If you’re looking for another appetizer, try Pretzel Wrapped Lit’l Smokies.

Don’t get me wrong. I love me some bacon, avocado anything. But sometimes I just want things to taste the way my mom made them.

I learned to make basically everything from my mom, and deviled eggs are no exception. This is the recipe we always made when I was growing up. Deviled eggs were something she usually only made around Easter or occasionally for family pot lucks.

HOW TO MAKE CLASSIC DEVILED EGGS

  • Put the eggs in a medium-sized pot, cover them with water, and add baking soda to the water.
  • Bring to a boil and boil eggs for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, drain hot water from the pot, and then fill with cold water. Add ice cubes to speed up the process.
  • Let eggs cool completely before cutting in half and making the filling.
  • When eggs are completely cooled, remove shells, rinse any residual shell residue off the eggs. Pat dry.
  • Using a sharp knife, carefully cut eggs in half and softly remove the yolks. Place the yolks in a small mixing bowl.
  • Repeat until all eggs are halved and all yolks are in the mixing bowl.
  • Add the mayonnaise, parsley, vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper, and onion powder to the egg yolks. (See photo below.) Mix with a fork until everything is well combined.

I recently saw a GENIUS idea for carrying deviled eggs to a potluck. Let’s face it. Without one of those fancy trays, it is dang near impossible to transport those slippery little suckers.

This genius carrier is made from things I am sure you already have in your house. It takes less than 5 minutes to put together. Life-Changing!!! I wrote a whole separate post with step-by-step instructions on how to make one. Check it out!

Tips for making Classic Deviled Egg Recipe
  • Mix in the mayonnaise and taste the filling before adding the salt. Some mayos are saltier than others.
  • Add ice cubes to the cold water to speed up the process of cooling the eggs down.
  • Use a piping bag or small cookie scoop to fill the egg whites with the filling.
  • You can make the deviled eggs a day in advance of serving. Just wait until serving to add the paprika and parsley on top of the eggs.
  • Make a homemade deviled egg carrier to transport this appetizer.
