Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs with Cherry Tomatoes.
Step 1
Start by placing your eggs in a single layer in a saucepan, then cover them with water, ensuring the water is about an inch above the eggs.
Step 2
Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a vigorous boil over high heat.
Step 3
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove the saucepan from the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 15 minutes.
Step 4
After the time is up, carefully drain the eggs and cool them under cold running water.
Step 5
Once they’re cool enough to handle, gently peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
Step 6
Scoop the yolks into a mixing bowl and mash them with a fork until they’re nice and crumbly.
Step 7
While you’re working on the eggs, take your halved cherry tomatoes and place them cut-side down on a paper towel.
Step 8
This will help drain any excess moisture, ensuring your dish stays fresh and flavorful.
Step 9
In a separate bowl, mash the cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy.
Step 10
Then, stir in the mashed egg yolks along with flaked salmon, mayonnaise, spicy brown mustard, sour cream, lemon juice, pickle relish, grated lemon peel, and a teaspoon of smoked paprika.
Step 11
Mix everything together until it’s well combined, and don’t forget to season with salt and pepper to taste for that perfect flavor balance.
Step 12
Now comes the fun part! Spoon the delicious salmon mixture into the egg halves and the halved cherry tomatoes, filling them generously.
Step 13
For a beautiful finishing touch, sprinkle a little extra smoked paprika on top and arrange everything on a lovely serving platter.
Step 14
To let the flavors meld together beautifully, chill your creations in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
Step 15
This delightful dish is perfect for gatherings or a special treat, and it’s sure to impress your guests with its vibrant colors and rich flavors! Enjoy your culinary masterpiece!.
