How To Slice Hard-Cooked Eggs & Remove The Yolk
There is basically a three step process necessary in order to make deviled eggs. First the eggs must be boiled & peeled. Next, they must be cut in half in order to remove the yolks. Finally, the yolks are mashed, seasoned & piped back into the egg white shells. Learn how to create the prettiest look.
The Technique
Deviled eggs are not difficult to prepare in the least, however some care should be taken in order for them to look their best for serving. Use a paring knife to slice the eggs in half once they have been cooked & wipe the blade clean against a paper towel in between cuts. This will minimize a bit of crumby yolk on the white portion of the eggs. In order to remove the yolks, the tip of the paring knife works well. Gently prod it free & allow it to tumble into the work bowl for mashing. If a smidgen sticks to the interior, it may be left in tact so as not to disturb the delicate portions of the egg whites as it can be quite thin in some places.
