Servings:
48 Servings
Listed in Categories:
  • 24 Eggs
  • 1 cn Deviled ham; (4 1/2 oz)
  • 2 1/2 ts Sweet pickle relish
  • 2 tb Cider vinegar
  • 2 tb Sugar
  • 2 tb Prepared yellow mustard
  • 1/2 ts Tabasco sauce
  • 1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper
  • 1/2 ts Salt
  • Paprika
  • Pimento-stuffed olives
Place eggs in a 10-12 quart Dutch oven. Add enough cold water to completely
cover eggs. Bring to a full boil over high heat; immediately set a kitchen
timer for 12 minutes. Reduce heat to maintain a low boil. Partially fill a
large bowl with water and ice cubes. When timer sounds, drain eggs at once;
place into iced water. Peel eggs as soon as they are cool enough to handle.
Slice peeled eggs in half lengthwise; carefully scoop yolks into a 2 quart
bowl. Place whites on a serving platter; set aside.

Add all remaining ingredients except paprika and olives to yolks. Using
back of a fork, mash yolks until blended. Using a spoon, fill each white
with a portion of filling, rounding off top. Or, for a more elegant
presentation, spoon filling into a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2"star tip.
Pipe filling into whites. Sprinkle stuffed eggs with paprika; place an
olive slice in center of each. Makes 48 stuffed egg halves.
