Doc Bear's Colorful Deviled Eggs

A vibrant twist on the classic deviled egg! These colorful eggs use food coloring to create rainbow-hued egg whites while maintaining the traditional creamy, tangy yolk filling. Perfect for parties, holidays, or whenever you want to add some fun to your appetizer spread.

Ingredients

  • 6 each eggs, hard-boiled
  • 1 Tbsp mayo
  • 1 Tbsp white vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp mustard
  • Salt and white pepper
  • Paprika
  • Green onion
  • Food coloring
  • 4 Tbsp Additional white vinegar for coloring

Instructions

  1. Peel the hard-boiled cooked eggs, and then Cut them lengthwise and carefully remove the yolk portion. Place the yolk in a bowl and the egg white on a plate or platter. Continue until all boiled eggs are sliced and separated.
  2. Carefully wash the egg whites either under slow cold running water or fill a bowl with cold water and wash the egg white to remove any excess yolk residue or shell cuticle from the outside.
  3. Take a Cup large enough to hold one half egg white and fill with ½ Cup of cold water and 1 Tbsp of white vinegar.
  4. Then add 5 drops of your food coloring of choice.
  5. Place one half egg white in the color solution and allow to dye for about 5 minutes.
  6. The longer it sets, the darker the color.
  7. You may need to add more coloring if it is not getting as dark as you like.
  8. A full red is very difficult to achieve from my experience.
  9. Continue until all egg whites are the color you wish them to be.
  10. While the egg whites are coloring, smash the yolks into a fine crumble using a fork.
  11. Add mayo, vinegar, mustard, dill pickle juice to make a soft paste, add the salt and white pepper and mix well.
  12. Take a small taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  13. Filling is ready to be placed into egg whites. I use a plastic sandwich bag, cut a corner and pipe the mixture into the egg whites.
  14. Finally, add any garnishments to the deviled eggs.
