Devilled Eggs


These are my first go at devilled eggs, from Jessica Seinfeld's much debated cookbook "Deceptively Delicious". The book's catch is that within every recipe is a hidden vegetable or fruit puree. These eggs are smuggling half a cup of pureed cauliflower in addition to 6 hard boiled egg yolks, mayonnaise, paprika and salt. Given that it is a cookbooked aimed at a child's palate I found the recipe bland and needed to add several dashes of cayenne to get it going.
As with most recipes where a filling goes into small packages, there was lots of egg mixture left over. This made a tasty lunch spread the next day with toasted bagel and sliced tomato.
