My kids not only love deviled eggs, they now love to make them too. My youngest made them for Easter and she is the one kid who doesn’t like to eat them. The rest I think could eat their weight in them.
Now I know everyone has a secret to making sure the shells come off smoothly, so they don’t look like someone has been hacking on them. My tip is LET THEM COOL COMPLETELY. Sorry, didn’t mean to yell. I still sometimes wait to the last minute and don’t allow them to cool, and every single time…. Hacked up eggs. Doesn’t matter if I add baking soda, vinegar, how we whack them… let them cool. When I remember, we make the eggs the day before and refrigerate them to peel and prepare the next day.
