Ingredients

Scale

Eggs and Filling

  • 1 dozen eggs
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons wasabi paste
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup cooked crab meat

Garnishes

  • 1 avocado, thinly sliced
  • ½ cucumber, thinly sliced
  • Radishes, thinly sliced
  • Black sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with cold water by about 1 inch. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pan and immediately remove from heat, allowing the eggs to stand in the hot water for 13 minutes to cook through.
  2. Cool the eggs: Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice-water bath. Let them chill completely to stop the cooking process and make peeling easier.
  3. Peel and halve the eggs: Carefully peel the cooled eggs and slice each one in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them into a medium bowl.
  4. Prepare the filling: Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth. Stir in the mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and salt until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
  5. Fill the egg whites: Using a spoon or a piping bag, evenly and neatly fill the hollowed egg whites with the wasabi-infused yolk mixture.
  6. Add toppings and garnish: Top each filled deviled egg half with a small amount of cooked crab meat. Garnish with thin slices of avocado, cucumber, radishes, and sprinkle black sesame seeds on top for added flavor and visual interest.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for easier peeling and better taste.
  • Adjust the amount of wasabi paste based on your preferred spice level.
  • Make sure to cool the eggs completely before peeling to avoid tearing the whites.
  • For a presentation twist, serve on a bed of shredded lettuce or seaweed.
  • These deviled eggs can be prepared a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated until serving.
