How to Make Hard-Boiled Eggs

Making hard-boiled eggs is very simple and you can even cook them up days in advance for easy assembly later.

I’ve found that the best way to make perfect hard-boiled eggs is to cover eggs with a few inches of water + a pinch of kosher salt, bring to a boil, remove from heat, cover pan, and allow to sit offheat for 12 minutes. Then immediately plunge eggs in ice water to stop the cooking process and allow to sit in ice water 20 minutes.

My biggest tips for making eggs that peel easily are to follow my cooking techniques above (especially letting the eggs soak in ice water) and to run eggs under water during peeling. I’ve also found that using older eggs tends to help the shell come off easier (1-2 weeks old is optimal).

Tips for Perfect Deviled Eggs

1. Handle eggs with care – gently handle the eggs while slicing them in half and removing yolk to avoid any ripping of the white.
2. Use both minced dill pickle and juice – using a double dose of dill pickle will give these eggs tons of flavor.
3. Blend filling with electric mixer – I recommend using a handheld electric mixer to blend the filling into a perfect creamy texture.
4. Top eggs with bacon just before serving – for a little extra crunch, wait to add the crispy bacon bits until just before serving eggs.

Recipe Variations

Try these ideas for a different twist on these eggs.

• Use bread and butter pickles – this will give the deviled eggs a hint of sweetness instead of the tangy flavor from dill.
• Try another fresh herb – fresh parsley, chives, or basil would be great in place of the dill.
• Skip the bacon – for a vegetarian version, simply omit the bacon.

Serving Suggestions

These deviled eggs are great served on any brunch or Easter table! Try pairing them alongside other appetizers such as fresh veggies/dip, fresh fruit, sliced cheese/crackers, etc.

You won’t be able to keep these deviled eggs stocked at your next party and that’s just a fact, no matter how many you make. The dill pickle + crispy bacon combo is really really hard to beat here.
