Since it is Canadian thanksgiving this Monday, I'm making a large batch of
Potato salad and also some deviled eggs. I tried an experiment with the eggs. I bought the eggs thursday and hard boiled 2 dozen early friday. I followed the method of putting the eggs in a pot with water to cover by 1". And slowly brought them to a boil. Removed from heat and let sit 20 minutes. I then cooled the rest of the way with cold water and put the eggs back in their cartons and into the fridge. 24 hrs approx later I cracked the shells and immershed them in water for 5 minutes. Peeling the eggs this way seemed to get better looking eggs. Oh I dipped the eggs in the water frequently while peeling as well. I believe if I had used older eggs all the eggs would have been unpock marked. The shell came off in strips...like when peeling an orane on quite a few. I used the penzeys sweet curry and a 1/2 tsp horseraddish in the mayo and due to family preferences used 1/2 helmans and 1/2 miracle whip. 5 lbs red potatoes, 12 eggs, 3/4 large onion all chopped fine. mixed dressings added to your personal taste. |
