It’s been a minute since I last made deviled eggs so I went a little extra. These were my contribution to football Sunday. They were a hit! Source

    Hot paprika is the best for spicing up some deviled eggs. Paprika is so underappreciated in the States.

      Isn’t SPP (salt, pepper, paprika) like the default dry rub for meat? Or is that just where I am.

        One, most of those rubs are not very high quality. Though I understand that there are some good options these days.

        That may well be true, but ask an average American if they cook with paprika, and the answer will usually be no. People do not pull paprika from the cabinet, for the most part. And it’s relatively uncommon for somebody to be familiar with different types–hot paprika, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, etc.

      Because in the States we settle for cheap, dusty paprika.

      PRO TIP: Get Hungarian paprika.

      PRO PRO TIP: Grow your own. Peppers are about toughest, easiest, most forgiving plants out there. Dry it in the sun or get a dehydrator from the thrift. I use a cheapo, dedicated coffee grinder for pepper powders.

    The only thing I’m gonna taste are the jalapenos. 🫠 They overtake everything for me. Can’t taste anything else. Nice presentation though!

      Same, I don’t like the flavor of jalapenos. I don’t have an issue with spiciness, it’s the taste that I don’t like.

        they actually are my favorite. habenaros I hate and its not the spiciness as you say. I can have a bit of habenaro vs a ton of jalapenos such that the thing is hotter and I would take the jalapenos. honestly you take the seeds out and I can hardly tell the difference between then and green peppers.

        Ah, yeah, fair enough! For me it’s the spiciness and how they overtake every meal they’re in.

        Tiny pieces in chili cheese balls are fine but, not much else for me personally. 😐

    Sometimes simpler is better. Just use some paprika and cayenne for the same flavor and avoid the massive effort.
