Best Smoked Egg Dipspread Recipes

SMOKED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat your smoker to 325 degrees F according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Place the eggs directly on the grates of your smoker. Close the lid of your smoker and smoke for 30 minutes at 325 degrees F.
• Remove the cooked eggs from the smoker and place into an ice bath immediately. Chill completely.
• Reduce heat on your smoker to 180 degrees F.
• Peel the eggs and return them to the grill. Smoke for 30-45 minutes depending on the amount of smoke flavor you want in your eggs.

SMOKY GRILLED DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Slice each hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise. Scoop the egg yolks into a medium bowl and mash with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, adobo sauce and paprika and stir together until completely combined; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Lightly brush the egg whites on the cut sides with mayonnaise. Put the eggs cut-side down in a grill basket; close and secure the basket. Place the basket directly over the hot coals and cook until grill marks appear on the egg whites, 30 seconds to a minute. Transfer the whites to a serving plate and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• When ready to serve, pipe some of the yolk mixture into each egg white and dust with a little paprika.

SMOKED SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• Cream the cheese in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until just smooth. Add the sour cream, lemon juice, dill, horseradish, salt, and pepper, and mix. Add the smoked salmon and mix well. Chill and serve with crudites or crackers.
• If you can find it, I prefer Norwegian salmon; it's drier and less salty than other smoked salmon.

SMOKY EGGPLANT SPREAD

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal fire or heat the broiler. Pierce eggplants here and there with the point of a paring knife. Place eggplants 2 inches from heat source. Allow skins to blister and char, turning with tongs until entire surface is blackened and eggplants are completely soft, about 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Slice eggplants in half lengthwise and lay skin side down on a cutting board. Carefully scrape away flesh with a knife and put it in a colander. Discard burned skins. Do not rinse eggplant flesh - a few bits of remaining char is fine. Salt flesh lightly and leave for 5 to 10 minutes, then squeeze into a ball to remove liquid.
• Blitz eggplant, 1/2 teaspoon salt, tahini, lemon juice, garlic and cayenne in a food processor or blender to obtain a creamy purée. (For a more rustic spread, beat with a whisk instead.) Taste and adjust salt and lemon juice if necessary. Transfer mixture to a shallow serving bowl.
• Just before serving, stir together cumin and olive oil, and spoon over the mixture's surface. Sprinkle with paprika, parsley and mint. Serve with warm pita cut into triangles if desired.

• Place the eggs into a saucepan in a single layer and fill with water to cover the eggs by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Remove from the heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Drain. Cool the eggs under cold running water. Peel and chop the cooled eggs.
• Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate; crumble once cool.
• Combine the eggs, bacon, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, paprika, sugar, white wine vinegar, and mustard in a bowl to make a chunky dip. Garnish with paprika.
