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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
