Frequently Asked Deviled Questions
What Is The Secret To Creamy Deviled Eggs?
The secret to smooth and creamy texture is the addition of one simple ingredient. Mayonnaise! Avoid messing around with a low fat version. Use whole mayonnaise. I recommend Duke’s.
A southern woman can tell if you did not use Duke’s Mayonnaise in potato salad and deviled eggs! It’s Got the Twang! It is a “Bless Your Heart” critique if you don’t use Duke’s!

Can Deviled Eggs Be Made In Advance
Deviled eggs can be prepared and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days in advance. Keep the egg white halves and the filing separate to avoid dried out eggs. Fill before serving.
Why Are Boiled Eggs Rubbery
Boiling eggs too long causes rubbery egg whites and green tinted yolks. Pay attention to exact times using a timer and move the eggs to an ice bath immediately.
