Smoked Salmon and Dill Deviled Eggs
The holidays are around the corner and while this year it looks like we’re not going anywhere or hosting anything, I still enjoy creating spreads as if I were. This deviled egg recipe is very simple, using a normal deviled egg base but elevated to a delicious height with the addition of minced smoked salmon. If you have salmon caviar (or any other type of caviar) on hand, this easily becomes an impressive hors d’oeuvre sure to wow guests.
Dill is super easy to grow in the garden, so I always have it on hand. It is among my favorite herb!
I like to stick the cooked yolks in a ziplock and crush it smooth with my hands, since it makes the mixing part a little easier.
