Anchovied Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Cool the eggs, peel them, cut them in half the long way, and carefully remove the yolks.
• Mash the yolks with salt, olive oil, mustard, cayenne and anchovy fillets. Taste and adjust seasoning. Spoon the filling back into the whites. (If you are making a lot of deviled eggs and want them to be especially attractive, use a pastry bag to pipe them back into the whites.)
• Garnish with a piece of anchovy fillet and a couple of capers and serve, or cover and chill, well wrapped, for up to a day before serving.

Steps:

• Remove the eggs from their shells and cut them lengthwise or crosswise in half. If they are cut crosswise, cut off a thin slice from the bottom of each shelled half so that the eggs, when stuffed, will sit upright.
• Place a small sieve over a mixing bowl and put the egg yolks into the sieve. Using your fingers, press the yolks through the sieve. Add the remaining ingredients except the garnishes and beat to blend.
• Fill the cavity of each egg half with equal portions of the mixture, using a spoon or pastry tube. Decorate the top of each with small slices of pimento, olives or green pepper, or with rolled anchovy fillets.
