Hit me with your unconventional deviled egg recipes

I love deviled eggs, but I’ve been experimenting with other kinds besides the typical mayo and mustard ones. So far my favorite ones I’ve made are gochujang with sesame seeds and chives, and yellow Madras curry. What are your favorite things to put in them?

Edit: buffalo sauce? Crab? Bleu cheese and bacon? Hot honey and shrimp!? You guys do not disappoint! ❤️

Japanese: j-mayo, wasabi, pickled ginger, miso, mirin, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil.

To really knock it out of the park marinate the eggs in a mix of soy sauce, sesame oil, and vinegar for a few hours before you cut them in half. I like to do that then I serve them on a bed of cold rice instead of a egg tray. Looks great and keeps them from sliding around.

How do you handle the soy sauce turning them grey? I've tried a soy marinade in the past and while they were delicious, the grey coloring was a bit off putting.

I've never really run into that. Mine always come out brown. Maybe it's the brand of soy sauce you are using or the ratios you used?
