    Two photos of the preparation of making horseradish deviled eggs.
    1. Slice the prepared eggs in half, lengthwise. Remove the egg yolks and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside. 
    2. In a large mixing bowl, add the egg yolks, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, prepared horseradish, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Combine well. Taste for seasoning, reseason where needed.
    3. Spoon the egg mixture into the egg white halves. If looking for a smooth filling, place the deviled egg filling into a small sandwich bag and snip a corner piece off with a scissor. Pipe the filling into the egg white half.
    4. Sprinkle tops with paprika, extra black pepper, and or chopped chives. (optional garnish)

    Making Deviled Eggs for a Crowd

    1. Make the hard-boiled eggs.
    2. Begin the process of making the deviled eggs.
    3. Put frozen ice packs in the bottom of a cooler
    4. Place the cooked egg whites into a large plastic container with a lid. TIP Use an empty egg carton to transport your cooked egg whites  (See step 6 in How To Make Deviled Eggs above)
    5. Once the filling mixture is mashed together and seasoned to your liking, scoop the yolk mixture into a sealable plastic bag. Place the horseradish deviled egg filling into the cooler.
    6. Keep them on the ice packs and ensure they are cold
    7. Once at your destination. Keep the egg whites and egg filling in the fridge until ready to serve.
    8. Once ready, remove both from the fridge. Slice a small piece of the corner of the sandwich bag and fill the egg whites with the yolk filling.

    Storage

    Make Ahead: The eggs can be made ahead of time up to overnight. Make the hard-boiled eggs the day before serving.

    • Separate the egg white and egg yolks. Everything should be kept in the refrigerator in covered airtight containers.
    • The filling can be made at the same time as making the eggs ahead of time. Keep the filling in a covered airtight container until ready to prepare the deviled eggs.
    • Then fill the egg whites as directed in the recipe.

    Leftovers can be kept for a short time, about 1 day in a covered airtight container.

    Expert Tips

    • If you are looking for easy ways to make perfect hard-boiled eggs, this pressure cooker egg recipe is for you.
    • If you don't have an instant pot, try our air fryer hard boiled eggs.
    • If making the eggs on the stovetop, add ½ teaspoon of white vinegar to the water and then add the eggs. This helps prevent the shells from sticking to the eggs.
    • Once the eggs are cooked, be sure to run the eggs under ice cold water to stop the cooking process.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Where did the name deviled eggs originate?

    Deviled eggs have been around since the 1700s.
    The "deviled" definition depicts a spicy recipe. Classic Deviled Egg has some spice from paprika and mustard.

    Can I make the deviled eggs in advance?

    The eggs can be made a bit ahead of time. Make them in the morning and keep them in the refrigerator in a covered airtight container.

    How should I cook the eggs?

    Use either air fryer hard-boiled eggs or Instant Pot hard-boiled eggs. Stovetop instructions, place the eggs in a small or medium-sized saucepan ( depending on how many eggs you are using), and fill with cold water.
    Over medium heat, bring the water to a boil. Remove the pot from the heat and cover with a lid and let sit for 11 minutes.
    Then drain the eggs and run cold running water on them for about 1 minute.
    Then, place them in a medium bowl of ice water to stop cooking.
    Once the eggs are cool, peel the eggs and they are ready to be made into horseradish deviled eggs.

    Variations

    Spices: Add a bit of spice with Old Bay Seasoning or Cajun Seasoning.

    Protien: If looking to add extra protein, add in cooked chopped bacon, leftover ham,or prosciutto for a nice variation.

    Creaminess: In lieu of mayonnaise use Greek yogurt.

    Tanginess: Add some sweet pickle relish to the creamy filling for a nice crunch factor with a zippy flavor.

    Serving Suggestions
