Best Deviled Eggs With Crème Fraîche And Caviar Recipes

DEVILED EGGS ON TOAST WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spread bread squares evenly on a baking sheet. Bake until edges are lightly golden, 7 to 10 minutes, and set aside to cool.
• Peel eggs, and cut in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks, and reserve. Cut whites in half again lengthwise, and arrange quarters on toast squares at a diagonal.
• Using a stiff rubber spatula, push the yolks through a fine mesh sieve placed over a small bowl. Stir in creme fraiche, heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
• Transfer yolk mixture into a medium-size pastry bag fitted with an open-star tip (Wilton No. 32). Pipe mixture into egg-white quarters, about 3/4 teaspoon for each quarter. Spoon a dab of caviar over piped yolks, and garnish with a chive.

BEARNAISE DEVILED EGGS WITH CAVIAR AND FRIED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• For the fried shallots: Fill a deep, heavy skillet with 1 inch of oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Slice the shallots thinly, and separate into rings. Dust with rice flour, and then drop into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove to a paper towel to drain. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the bearnaise sauce: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine half of the tarragon with the shallots, vinegar and wine. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Blend the egg yolks and 1/4 cup of the bearnaise reduction together in a blender. With the blender running, add one-third of the melted butter in a slow, steady stream. Once the butter emulsifies, turn the blender speed up to high and add the remaining butter. Add the remaining half of the tarragon, season with salt and pepper, and give the sauce one more buzz. Set aside in a warm spot to hold.
• For the deviled eggs: To make perfect hard-boiled eggs, place the eggs in a saucepan of cold water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water boils, immediately turn off the heat and let sit for exactly 14 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water, let cool, and then peel.
• Slice the eggs in half, and then slice a sliver off the bottom so they will stand erect on the plate. Remove the yolks to a food processor.
• Season a bowl of cold water very generously with salt, and stir until dissolved. Rinse the egg whites in the salt water to remove any remaining yolk--this way, you season the eggs at the same time.
• To the yolks in the food processor, add 1/4 cup of the bearnaise sauce and the creme fraiche, mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice. Process until completely smooth--you may have to add a few drops of water to loosen. Season with salt.
• Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large circle tip, and pipe the filling into the egg whites. Top with caviar, fried shallots and tarragon tips.

DEVILED EGGS WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• Place the eggs in a medium pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil for 30 seconds then remove from the heat, cover, and let stand for 15 minutes. Drain the eggs and run under cold water until cool. Carefully peel the eggs and halve each lengthwise. Carefully remove and reserve the yolks.
• Place the yolks in a food processor with the mayonnaise, creme fraiche, Dijon, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Process until smooth, and then season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off.
• Pipe the yolk mixture into the eggs. Top each egg with a scant teaspoon of the tobiko, a small dollop of creme fraiche and a piece of chive.

THE PERFECT DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Slice eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks. Place yolks in a medium bowl and set whites aside.
• Mash yolks with a fork. Add mayonnaise, relish, Dijon, yellow mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper; stir until well combined and smooth. Transfer to a large zip-top bag.
• Arrange egg whites on a tray. Snip off the bottom corner of the zip-top bag. Fill each white with about 1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons filling. Sprinkle with paprika.

LUXE TRUFFLE DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Halve the eggs lengthwise and transfer the yolks to a mixing bowl. Set 20 egg white halves on a platter, cover, and refrigerate. This recipe uses 12 egg yolks, but only yields enough filling for 20 halves; reserve the extra 4 whites for another use.
• With a fork, mash the yolks to a smooth consistency. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, truffle oil, and salt, and mix until smooth. (You can also do this using an electric mixer with a whip attachment.) Taste and season accordingly.
• Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a plain or large star tip, then pipe the mixture evenly into the egg white halves. Or fill the eggs with a spoon, dividing the filling evenly.
• Top each egg half with a tiny sprinkle of black lava salt, a grind of fresh-cracked black pepper, and a chive flower, if using.

DEVILED EGGS WITH CREME FRAICHE

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan. Completely cover with cold water. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. Boil 2 minutes; let them for twelve minutes. Rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Cool completely. Peel; slice in half crosswise; separate yolks from whites. Trim bottom of whites so they don't wobble. Set aside.
• Place yolks in a sieve over a medium bowl; press through with a spoon. Mix in mayonnaise, creme fraiche, and Dijon; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a medium star tip (Ateco #35). Pipe into egg-white cups; set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine chopped chives, parsley, and tarragon. Snip some fennel or dill over eggs; arrange remaining fennel or dill on serving plate, and place eggs on top. Garnish egg with chopped herb mixture, and serve.

CLASSIC SAVORY DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Scoop egg yolks into a bowl and set egg whites aside. Mash yolks, mayonnaise, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon chopped dill, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and salt. Spoon yolk mixture into egg whites. Garnish with dill sprigs. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
