How To Make "ravened" eggs

  • Step 1
    For best results, use eggs that are a few days old. Fill a large saucepan half-way with water.
  • Step 2
    Add 1 teaspoon each vinegar and salt.
  • Step 3
    add the eggs. (Ensure eggs are covered by 1” of water.) Bring the water to a boil.
  • Step 4
    Cover, and remove from heat.
  • Step 5
    Let sit covered for 12-15 minutes.
  • Step 6
    Drain hot water from pan and run cold water over the eggs. Let stand a few minutes.
  • Step 7
    Peel the eggs. Using a sharp knife, slice each egg in half, lengthwise.
  • Step 8
    Gently remove the yolk halves and place in a small mixing bowl.
  • Step 9
    Arrange the egg white halves on a serving platter; set aside.
  • Step 10
    Using a fork or potato masher, crush the yolks. Fold in remaining ingredients in order given except for garnish (bacon bits or green onions).
  • Step 11
    Divide egg yolk mixture evenly among egg white halves. (You may use cookie decorator or piping bag for a prettier appearance).
  • Step 12
    Garnish with bacon bits or green onions. Pinch additional seafood seasoning over filling, if desired.
