Hi Jenny ,
This morning I did hard boiled eggs for devilled eggs. Should I unpeel the egg shells then mix the yolks with mayo etc. now or wait until tomorrow morning before our party at noon?

Patsy
I always made them the night before because they keep well.
Hi Jenny,
I am deaf from London Ontario.
I saw your video about deviled eggs recently.
I am planning to make 1dozen of devilled eggs for the celebration of life this coming Sunday.
I am wondering how much measurement I will put yellow mustard and mayo for 12 yolks? I do appreciate for your help.
I love your sense of humor🤗
Regards
Patsy
For 12 eggs, (making 24 deviled eggs) I would use 3 Tablespoons of mayo, 1 teaspoon of mustard, and a scant 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Once the mixture is done, you can add a bit more mayo if it’s too dry.
Love your cooking. Looking for a really good shrimp recipe.
I love to cook and tried your deviled egg recipe. It was fantastic. My partner says they are the best he has ever had.
