5-PEPPER DEVILED EGGS
Five types of pepper add multi-dimensional spice to classic deviled eggs.Once upon a time on a show called Good Eats, I made 4-Pepper Deviled Eggs. Why four? Because I feared the world just wasn't ready for the 5-pepper version. Strong? Yes. But the cool thing about egg yolks is that they can hold the heat in check so that the more complex flavors of the peppers can come through.(And if you prefer the 4-pepper version, simply substitute capers for the brined green peppercorns and caper brine for the peppercorn brine.)This recipe first appeared on altonbrown.com.

Steps:
- Slice the eggs in half from top to bottom. Scoop the yolks into a medium mixing bowl and lay the whites on a serving platter. Sprinkle the whites with the salt.
- Place all of the dry peppercorns, except 1/2 teaspoon of the pink peppercorns, into a spice grinder and process until well ground. Add the ground peppers, chopped green peppercorns and their brine, mayonnaise, and mustard to the egg yolks and, using a fork, stir to thoroughly combine.
- Place the mixture into a zip-top plastic bag and cut a small hole at one of the corners. Pipe the mixture into each of the white halves. Coarsely grind the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of pink peppercorns and use to garnish the top of each egg.
- Chill for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator before serving.

Steps:
- Place the eggs in a single layer in a wide saucepan, cover with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely, then carefully peel them.
- Dip a clean kitchen towel in a small bowl of warm water. Wipe the blade of your knife with the towel to warm it up and to wet the blade. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise, one at a time, wiping the blade clean between each egg. (The warm, wet blade will give you clean cuts.) Remove the yolks to a medium bowl. Mash the yolks with a whisk. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce if using and salt and pepper to taste. Whisk until very smooth. Transfer to a large resealable plastic bag or disposable pastry bag and snip off one corner with scissors.
- Place the egg whites on a platter. Pipe the filling evenly into the egg whites. Top with chives and a sprinkle of paprika. Refrigerate for 20 to 25 minutes prior to serving.
