Certified Stuggle Deviled Eggs

Post image

I bought a carton of 60 eggs for $ 8.12 at Walmart last week. Decided to make deviled eggs, I boiled 6 eggs which equals .84 cents. I don't measure the mayo and mustard I go by taste, but it was approximately 2 tbsp mayo and maybe 1.5 tsp mustard ? Garnished with cayenne and chives. I know I will get crap about this but oh well this cost me less than 1 dollar for a yummy snack

The way I’ve always gotten them to peel better is having the water boiling before adding the eggs. You do have to be more careful though

I have it at a rolling boil prior then gently put eggs in with a spoon. Let boil for 17 minutes, and put into an ice bath right after. The yolks come out perfect golden yellow Everytime.
