Notes
Pro Tips

A little truffle oil goes a long way - don't overdo it. Use white truffle oil for its more delicate flavor. Steam eggs for 12 minutes instead of boiling for easier peeling. Press yolks through a fine sieve for silkiest texture. The flaky salt garnish is important - it adds crunch and sparkle.

History & Origin

Deviled eggs have graced party tables since Roman times, but the truffle oil addition transforms the humble appetizer into something worthy of New Year's Eve. The earthy, luxurious aroma of truffle oil elevates familiar flavors without changing the essential character of the dish.
