This recipe takes a familiar deviled egg and changes the presentation for Halloween: orange-red paprika gives the filling a pumpkin color, shallow grooves suggest the pumpkin shape, and a small green herb stem finishes the illusion.
Basic idea
- Hard-boil and cool the eggs.
- Halve them and mix the yolks into your preferred deviled-egg filling.
- Pipe or spoon the filling back into the whites.
- Shape gentle pumpkin grooves, dust with paprika and add a tiny edible green stem.
Kitchen safety: an adult should handle boiling water and cutting.
