Deviled Eggs With Creme Fraiche Recipes

Steps:

• Place eggs in a small pan, and cover with water. Bring to a gentle simmer, and cook 9 minutes. Drain, and peel while still warm. Slice in half lengthwise; remove yolks, reserving whites on a serving platter.
• Place still-warm yolks in a small bowl, and mash with a fork. Add crème fraîche, mustard and finely sliced chives, and continue mashing until very smooth. Season to taste with salt, pepper and cayenne. Cut remaining chives into pieces 1/2 inch long.
• Using a pastry bag with a small ( 1/4 inch) round tip, pipe the mixture into the cavity of each white, filling it completely and making a small walnut-size mound above the white. At the picnic, spoon a little caviar on top of each egg and garnish with pieces of sliced chive.

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.

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl with an electric mixer until thick and frothy, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold in parsley, black pepper, salt, and white pepper.
• Melt butter and olive oil together in a nonstick skillet over medium heat; reduce heat to low. Cook and stir egg mixture in hot butter and oil until eggs begin to set, about 1 minute. Stir in 1 tablespoon creme fraiche; cook and stir until eggs are set, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and garnish with remaining creme fraiche.
