Equipment

  • 8-10 Stock Pot and Lid
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Knives
  • Cutting Board
  • Cooking Spider
  • Spatula
  • Spoon
  • Zip Lock Bag

Ingredients

  • 1 Dozen Large Eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 3 Cups Ice Cubes
  • 6 Tablespoons Mayonnaise (3 ounces)
  • 3 Tablespoons Yellow Mustard (1½ ounces)
  • 3 Tablespoons Homemade Green Tomato Relish (1½ounces)
  • Paprika (Sprinkle on top of the finished eggs)

Instructions

Boiling the Eggs:

  • Gently place 1 dozen large eggs in the bottom of a stock pot. Cover the eggs with cold water and add the apple cider vinegar and baking soda. Bring the water to a rolling boil.
  • Once the water is boiling, continue to cook the eggs for 8 minutes. (set a timer)
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the ice cubes and cold water to make an ice bath for the eggs. Using a kitchen spider tool, remove the warm boiled eggs from the stock pot and place them immediately in the ice bath.
  • Once sufficiently cooled, tap the large bottom of each egg on the countertop, then peel off and discard the shells.

Deviled (Dressed) Egg Recipe:

  • Slice each egg lengthwise and scoop out the center yolks into another mixing bowl.
  • To the mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise and mustard. Beat with an electric hand mixer until smooth.
  • Remove and scrape down the beaters using a spatula. Then add the homemade green tomato relish into the mixing bowl and thoroughly combine using a spoon. Find my family's recipe for the relish in my Green Tomato Relish (aka Country Ketchup) post.
  • Spoon the deviled egg mixture into a zip loc bag and make a small slit on the bottom corner seam to become a make-shift piping bag. Pipe the egg mixture into the egg white halves.
  • Sprinkle the tops of the deviled eggs with paprika for added color and spice.
