Fried Shallots

1
|
Place the shallots in an even layer in a shallow pan. Cover with the oil (they should be fully submerged). Use more if you need to!
2
|
Cook over medium-low heat until the shallots are golden-brown, about 20-25 minutes. Stir often with the tines of a fork to separate the shallots. Keep a close eye, because they will cook quickly once they start to brown.
3
|
Use the tines of a fork to remove the shallots from the pan. Place the shallots on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any extra oil. Sprinkle the hot fried shallots with Kosher salt and let cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Hard Boiled Eggs

1
|
Fill a large bowl with ice water. Then, place the eggs in a large pot. Cover with cold water by at least one inch.
2
|
Bring the water to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, cover the pot with a lid and slide it off of the heat. Let the eggs cook in the hot water for 12 minutes.
3
|
Immediately transfer the hard boiled eggs to the bowl of ice water. Let cool for about 15 minutes. Drain, dry, and store them in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Spicy Deviled Eggs

1
|
Peel the hard boiled eggs. Halve the eggs lengthwise, and scoop the yolks into a small bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving tray.
2
|
Add the mayo, Sriracha, soy sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, white pepper, and Kosher salt to the egg yolks. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg yolk mixture until it's very smooth. (Alternatively, use a fork to mash the mixture by hand until smooth.) Taste, and add more spices if necessary.
3
|
Spoon the yolk filling into a piping bag. Then, fill the divots in the egg whites with the egg yolk mixture. (Alternatively, you can use a spoon to fill the egg whites with the egg yolk filling.)
4
|
Immediately before serving, sprinkle the spicy deviled eggs with chives and the fried shallots. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Egg Perfection Technique 🥚
    Use week-old eggs for easier peeling, and shock them in an ice bath immediately after boiling to create a clean, smooth shell removal.
  • Shallot Crispiness Hack 🧅
    Pat shallots completely dry before frying and use a neutral oil like canola at 350°F to ensure crispy, golden-brown results without burning.
  • Spice Layering Mastery 🌶️
    Build heat complexity by combining multiple spices like cayenne, smoked paprika, and white pepper, tasting and adjusting for balanced, multi-dimensional heat.
  • Creamy Filling Secret 🥄
    Use a fine-mesh sieve or piping bag to create ultra-smooth, luxurious deviled egg filling with no lumps, ensuring a professional presentation.
  • Make-Ahead Magic 🕰️
    Prepare egg whites and filling separately up to 24 hours in advance, keeping crispy shallots as a last-minute garnish to maintain maximum crunch.
