Recipe for Sriracha Deviled Eggs.

6 hard boiled eggs

1/2 c mayo

2t (or more) sriracha

1t whole grain mustard( could substitute Dijon if necessary)

1/2 t lime juice

1t minced shallot

Salt to taste

1. Cut the hard boiled eggs in half longwise, use a small spoon to remove the yolk. Place the yolk into a mixing bowl. 

2. Combine the rest of the ingredients. 

3 using a mixer ( if you don't have a mixer , you can use a whisk. ) mix until smooth, I use my kitchen aid stand up mixer with the whisk attachment. 

4. Put the mixture into a piping bag, and pipe it back into the egg whites. 

I serve them with either home made potato chips, or a high quality kettle cooked potato chip. Goes great with a craft beer. Or Pabst Blue Ribbon. I'll leave that up to you. 

I made sriracha deviled eggs. And served them with kettle chips. Recipe to follow.
