1 ½tablespoonsmayonnaise
1teaspoonyellow mustard
2teaspoonssweet relish
2dropshot sauce1-2 drops
⅛teaspoonsalt
¼teaspoonblack pepper
¼teaspoongranulated sugar
1tablespoonreal bacon pieces - or chopped bacon
Pastel food coloring
Chives for garnish
Instructions
Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half and remove the yolks. Place them in a bowl.
Fill 4 separate bowls with water. Add one color of food coloring to each bowl.
Add 3 egg whites to each of the different colors and set aside. The longer you leave them the darker the color will be. I usually shoot for at least 10 minutes.
Add the mayonnaise, mustard, relish, hot sauce, salt, pepper, and sugar to the egg yolks.
Mix everything using a fork until the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the bacon pieces.
Remove the egg whites from the colored water and place them upside-down on a paper towel to dry.
Spoon the filling into the prepared egg whites.
Garnish with chives and serve.
Notes
Store in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
You can smash the leftovers to make egg salad.
If you don’t like relish you can just use the liquid from the relish.
If you like a thicker filling add an extra egg yolk to the filling.
I like to use the real bacon pieces in this recipe but you can use any kind of bacon bits you like.
