Spider Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Cut eggs in half lengthwise. Slip out yolks and mash.
• 2. Stir in mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper.
• 3. Place yolk mixture back in eggs.
• 4. Cut whole olive in half.
• 5. Put one half of olive for the spiders body.
• 6. Thinly slice the other half for the spiders legs. Put four legs on each side.

Steps:

• Cut eggs lengthwise into halves.
• Slip out yolks and mash well with a fork.
• Mix in remaining ingredients.
• Fill whites with yolk mixture, heaping it up lightly.
• To make spiders: cut each olive in half lengthwise. Set 1/2 olive on each egg.
• Cut the remaining olives in quarters to form the legs. Put 4 legs on each side to make spiders.

Steps:

• Combine 2 quarts water with the food coloring in a saucepot. Gently place the eggs in the water. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover, remove from the heat and set aside for 10 minutes.
• Remove the eggs from the water and place on paper towels. Lightly tap the eggs with a spoon to crack the shells. Transfer the eggs to a container with some ice and pour the cooking liquid over the eggs. Chill until completely cold.
• Gently peel the eggs. Slice a thin sliver off the narrow end of each egg so the eggs can stand upright when plated. Cut off the wide end of each egg and use a small spoon or the tip of a butter knife to gently scoop out the egg yolk into a mini food processor or mixing bowl. Process the yolks (or smash with a fork). Add the mayonnaise, vinegar, salt and pepper and mix until smooth. Spoon or pipe the yolk filling into the egg white cups.
• Place the egg white cups upright on a serving platter. Sprinkle a pinch of paprika on top of the yolks. Finish each egg with a sprig of fresh dill. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 15 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel.
• Cut each egg in half lengthwise, remove the yolks, and place the yolks in a bowl with the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mash the yolks and stir the mixture until smooth and thoroughly combined.
• Fill each egg half with the deviled yolk mixture using a spoon, piping bag, or a sturdy plastic bag with a corner cut off.
• Cut olives in half and place 1 half on each filled egg as the spider body. Cut the other olive half into 4 strips. Cut each strip in half, so you end up with 8 thin olive pieces for the legs. Arrange 4 olive legs on each side of the spider body. Dust with paprika.
