Answer 2

I'm not sure who invented them, but deviled eggs are a southern tradition at any holiday meal. Take 6 eggs & cover in cold water. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat, cover & let sit in hot water for about 20 minutes. Take & drain water, then run cold water over eggs til cool to the touch. Peel eggs, rinse then slice in 1/2 longways. Remove yolks & place in ziplock bag. Seal bag, then mash yolks by hand. Add mayo, mustard, and a little horseradish then mix well. Snip end of ziplock bag with scissors, then pipe filling into center of eggs. Sprinkle with paprika & an olive slice, then chill well for a few hours before serving......Yummy & best of all, no mess to clean up!!

**pickle relish is optional......

Answer 3

No one answered how do you make them:
You hardboil some eggs, what I do is I put them in cold water, bring them to a boil, turn off the heat and let them sit in the water for 20 mins. This way, you don't get the grey stuff on the outside of the yolk.
Then, plunge them into ice water, peel them and slice them in half, putting the yolks in a bowl and leaving the whites on a platter or wherever you're going to serve them.
The next part for me is usually to taste- I put mayonnaise, yellow mustard, salt, white pepper, a dash of tabasco and mix up the yolks till they are creamy.
Then, you can either spoon them back onto the egg whites or if you're fancy, you can pipe them on with an icing bag.
sprinkle some paprika on each one, refrigerate and serve as soon as they're cooled down.

Around 1868, Underwood and sons began experimenting with a new product created from ground ham blended with hot seasonings. They introduced a line of seasoned meat products including chicken, turkey, tongue, lobster and ham. They dubbed the seasoning process “deviling,” and the Underwood red devil was born. It holds U.S. Patent Office trademark NO. 82, granted in 1870, the oldest existing food trademark still in use in the United States.[1] While the Underwood devil is a trademark, the term "deviled" has evolved to refer to a number of foods (such as eggs) pureed with hot spices, particularly Dijon mustard.
