How to Make Colorful Deviled Eggs
Pink deviled eggs are a great way to add a personal pop of color to any gathering! Making them is surprisingly easy and does not take too much time.
To get started, you'll need twelve large eggs. Boil them until they are hard-boiled, then peel the shells off. In a medium-sized bowl, mix 1/3 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon chopped pickles, 1 tablespoon pickle juice, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Once the ingredients are combined, add the egg yolks and mash them with a fork or potato masher until the mixture is creamy.
Next, you'll need to dye the egg whites. To make pink deviled eggs, use beet juice and water. Place the egg whites in the dye for one minute or longer, depending on how deep of a pink you are trying to achieve. Fill the dyed egg whites with the yolk mixture.
For the final touch, you can add small flowers or more paprika to the tops of the eggs. Serve the pink deviled eggs immediately or store them in the fridge for later. Enjoy!
What are Other Ways to Hard Boiled Eggs?
Using my 360 2 Quart Saucepan to make my hard-boiled eggs without water. First you will wet a paper towel and your eggs. Fold the paper towel to fit into the saucepan, wet it with water, and place it in the pot. Make sure the towel isn't sitting in a pool of water but that all the water is held in the towel. Carefully place the eggs in a single layer on top of the wet towel. Cover the pot and heat it over medium heat until steam just begins to escape from under the lid, about 3 minutes. Spin the lid to engage the vapor seal then immediately reduce the heat to low. The cooking time will vary depending on the desired doneness of the eggs. For soft-cooked eggs, cook 5 to 6 minutes; for medium-cooked eggs, cook 7 to 8 minutes; and for hard-cooked eggs, cook 13 to 15 minutes.
How to Dye the Eggs
To make your own Pink Deviled Eggs, gather the supplies: hard-boiled eggs, food coloring, water, a shallow bowl, and a slotted spoon. Then, fill the bowl with equal parts water and beet juice or food coloring. Submerge the hard-boiled eggs in the colored water and let them sit for about 1 minute or more depending on the depth of color you are looking for. Carefully remove the eggs from the liquid and pat them dry with a paper towel. Now you have festive Pink Deviled Eggs!

INGREDIENTS
(Serving Size 12)
12 large eggs
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp chopped pickles
1 tbsp pickle juice
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 Paprika
INSTRUCTIONS
Hard boil the eggs first. Fold the paper towel to fit into the 2 Quart Saucepan.
Wet the paper towel with water and place it in the pot. (The towel shouldn’t be sitting in a pool of water. All the water should be held in the towel.) Place the eggs in a single layer on top of the wet towel.
Cover the pot and heat over medium heat until steam just begins to escape from under the lid, about 3 minutes.
Spin the lid to engage the vapor seal then immediately reduce the heat to low for 15 minutes.
Remove from heat and put eggs in an ice-cold bath. This makes it easier to peel them.
Once you peel the shell of the egg cut it in half lengthwise and remove egg yolk in a bowl. Put egg whites in another bowl and cover with 1 cup beet juice and 1 cup water until completely submerged. Leave for 1 minute and rinse with water and lay on a paper towel to dry. You can add more beet juice or leave it for longer to achieve a deeper pink.
In the egg yolk bowl mush eggs and add in pickle juice, chopped pickles, salt, pepper and paprika. Once mixed add to a piping bag and fill with egg yolks.
Adjustments you can make for this meal would be adding in dijon mustard in exchange for pickles if you want less of a pickled flavor. If you like a pickled flavor and are out of juice you can additionally use apple cider vinegar. Seasoning can also be changed for your taste buds as well as mayo ratio. I always encourage making all my recipes into your own to fit your diets and taste buds. Deviled eggs are a classic appetizer perfect for any occasion.
