No Cooking Curried Pumpkin Deviled Eggs
Ingredients
- 3 cups hot water (NOT boiling)
- 3 ½ tablespoon white vinegar
- 9 drops red food coloring
- 51 drops yellow food coloring
- 6 Great Day Farms Hard-Boiled Eggs
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ⅛ teaspoon yellow curry powder (or more if desired)
- salt to taste
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon fresh thyme (or more if desired)
Instructions
- Color the eggs: mix hot water, 3 tablespoons of vinegar, and both yellow and red food coloring in a deep bowl.
- Twine hard-boiled eggs like a pumpkin (8 wraps), completely submerge them into the bowl, and let rest in a single layer in that solution for 10-14 minutes.
- Remove eggs with a slotted spoon, pat dry with paper tower, and gently cut-off twine. On a cutting board, cut each egg in half (be sure to also slice off the rounded pointy end so that each egg half will have a flat bottom to rest on). Place yolks into a separate bowl, and prepare filling.
- To prepare filling, mash yolks with a fork and stir in mayo, mustard, yellow curry powder, remaining ½ tablespoon of vinegar, salt, sugar, and fresh thyme leaves.
- Pipe filling into the pumpkin-like egg shells and garnish as desired. I garnished mine with rosemary leaves (to resemble pumpkin stalks) and also a dash of curry.
Recipe Notes
- To color eggs, use a ratio of 1 tablespoon of vinegar per cup of hot water.
- For food safety, keep dyed hard-boiled eggs refrigerated and make sure that they don't sit out for more than two hours.
- For an additional Thanksgiving appetizer, try our Cauliflower Jalapeno Hummus with Cheese and Chorizo served with crudité vegetables or pita chips.
