Deviled Eggs

Deviled eggs are a classic party appetizer that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. They are made with hard-boiled eggs that are filled with a creamy mixture of mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper. The eggs can be garnished with paprika or other spices.

Deviled eggs have been around for centuries, and there are many different theories about their origin. One theory is that they were first created in ancient Rome, where they were called "eggs with a spicy filling." Another theory is that they were invented in France in the 18th century, where they were called "oeufs à la diable." Whatever their origin, deviled eggs have become a popular appetizer all over the world.
