Retro deviled eggs with smoked salmon are back in vogue. Easy to make and quite economical theyʼre a great finger food and probably the first to go at any party. Deviled eggs are a real crowd pleaser. They are such an elegant bite (well, maybe two bites), that’s worthy of any appetizer plate. Little wonder they are popping up on trendy bar menus around the world.

Growing up on our poultry farm deviled eggs featured at every holiday or party. Mixed with our mum Noela’s  condensed milk mayonnaise – GF  and filled with all sorts of tasty fillings. One of our favourites was smoked salmon and salmon caviar.

I remember we once made a whole case of eggs…. 15 dozen eggs! It was a group effort, particularly the peeling of the eggs. That’s a lot of eggs!

Condensed milk mayonnaise

This Nestle recipe has been around for decades, probably well before supermarkets sold salad dressing or salad cream. Our Mum always used malt vinegar but we have used white vinegar for our devilled eggs. The dark colour of malt vinegar would make the egg yolk filling a little grey . This mayo is a winner and the magic ingredient for these delicious smoked salmon eggs.

Some tasty filling suggestions 

  • smoked oysters
  • candied bacon
  • artichokes
  • blue cheese
  • green olives
  • crab
  • wasabi

Make ahead

Eggs can be made two days in advance. Simply boil eggs, peel and halve them. Put the yolks, smoked salmon, mayo, capers, chives and salt and pepper into a food processor and pulse until well combined or mash with a potato masher or fork and add finely chopped ingredients. Filling can be popped it into a piping bag and placed in the fridge ahead of time. We like to rinse the egg whites gently just so thereʼs no little bits of yolk sticking to the egg whites. Store covered in the fridge and when ready to decorate lay them on a plate and pipe away. Too easy!
