This recipe for deviled eggs is so delicious & easy. And you will certainly love it too.

This Austrian style deviled egg recipe is a staple in our family. This is an Austrian recipe that was given to my mother-in-law many years ago by her mother-in-law who later came to the states by boat for Austria.  The recipe was then shared with me when I married into the family.  Mom always made deviled eggs for every family function we had together. They really are simply the best-deviled eggs you have ever tasted. 

Austrian Style Deviled Eggs

The deviled egg recipe is not necessarily something you use exact measurements for, but rather by taste.

When my mother-in-law shared the recipe with me, she was only able to provide an estimate of measurements of the ingredients. Therefore, She said that you add your ingredients a little bit at a time until you get the desired taste. You will know if you need a little more sugar, or lemon juice & so on by your preference.

It took a lot of deviled eggs and taste testing over the years to master the recipe. My husband is the taste tester since he knew exactly how his mom’s Austrian Style Deviled Eggs would taste.

I bring Austrian Style Deviled Eggs to all of our family functions

Whenever I host or attend a party, it’s a given, and expected, that my deviled eggs will complement whatever is being served.  I would usually make about a dozen & a half for a family function or gathering and the deviled eggs would be eaten so fast. When I made them again, I had to make sure I made an extra dozen. And I am really ok with that!

Austrian Style Deviled Eggs

Ingredients

1 dozen large Eggs 2 tsp finely chopped Onions 1 tsp Sugar 2 tsp dry Mustard or 1 tsp prepared Mustard 2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce 2 tsp Lemon Juice 3/4 TBL Mayonnaise Paprika Salt & Pepper

Directions

1. Place a dozen eggs in a pot & add water till eggs are submerged in water.  Once the water boils, continue to boil for 16 minutes. 
2. Remove from heat & add cold water and ice to cool down.  Shocking the eggs with ice-cold water will help them peel better.
3. Once eggs are cooled, peel each of them.
4. Slice eggs in half and remove the yolk and place into a separate bowl. 5. Place the halved eggs onto a platter or deviled egg dish.
5. Mash yolks with a fork until well crumbled.
6. Start adding ingredients as listed. Add mayonnaise last. Add mayonnaise to desired consistency. Make sure the mixture is not too dry or runny.
7. Mix ingredients well.   8. Use a separate spoon to taste test. You may need to add more ingredients as desired. 9. Salt & Pepper to taste 10. Sprinkle Paprika generously over deviled eggs

    Being German, I never knew that Austrians had a signature deviled egg recipe. But regardless, it looks super yummy. Also, I love your deviled egg dish!

      So when my mother in law gave me this recipe, she said this was a German recipe given to her. I had no idea there was a signature deviled egg recipe either. Lol
