Classic Deviled Eggs
For a simply elegant presentation, fill a pastry bag with the egg yolk mixture (or a zip lock
bag with the corner snipped) and pipe about a tablespoon of the mixture into the well of the
egg. Repeat until all the eggs are filled. Experiment with various toppings: salmon roe caviar,
scallions, bacon crumbles, chopped olives, sweet pickles, sweet or spicy roasted peppers.

6 large eggs, hard boiled

2 tablespoons capers, chopped

1/4 cup sour cream
