Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make St. Patrick's Day Deviled Eggs.
Step 1
Start by placing your eggs in a spacious saucepan, ensuring they are fully submerged in water.
Step 2
Heat the water until it reaches a rolling boil, then promptly remove the saucepan from the heat.
Step 3
Allow the eggs to bask in the hot water for 15 minutes, soaking up the warmth.
Step 4
Once the time is up, transfer the hard-cooked eggs to a large bowl filled with ice-cold water or pop them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
Step 5
While the eggs cool, prepare your green egg dye according to the package instructions in a sturdy metal or glass bowl.
Step 6
Once the eggs are cool, gently crack the shells without peeling them, creating small fissures that will let the dye seep in and tint the egg whites.
Step 7
Let the eggs soak in the dye for about 5 minutes per batch, allowing the vibrant color to develop.
Step 8
After dyeing, rinse the eggs under cold water and peel them to reveal the stunning green marbled effect.
Step 9
Slice each egg in half lengthwise to showcase the beautiful interior.
Step 10
In a medium bowl, scoop out the yolks and mash them with a fork until smooth.
Step 11
Blend in the minced celery and mayonnaise until the mixture is creamy and well combined, then add a few drops of green food coloring to achieve your desired hue.
Step 12
Spoon the luscious yolk mixture back into the egg halves, and for a touch of elegance, crown each with a petite parsley leaf for garnish.
Step 13
Enjoy your delightful green deviled eggs, perfect for any festive occasion!.
