DEVILED EGGS
Serves 6
Ingredients:
6 large eggs
2 Tbsp sour cream
1/2 shallot, very finely minced
2 teaspoons capers, finely minced
Salt and pepper
Dash of cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp fresh dill, minced
To hard-boil eggs, bring pan of water to simmer. Lay eggs in water, return to simmer and cook for 8 minutes. Drain and cool eggs in cold water. Peel eggs and chill again in very cold water until cooled. This way the yolks remain very yellow, and the shell slips off easily when the eggs are still warm.
Slice eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks with a spoon. Push yolks through strainer with a spatula and place in medium bowl. Add sour cream, shallot, capers, salt and pepper to taste, cayenne pepper, and dill. blend until creamy, adding a bit more sour cream if necessary.
Pipe into cooked egg whites. Finish with a sprinkle of paprika. Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving.
