EDITOR’S NOTE (August 16, 2022):  Edited info to make it easier to understand.   
DISCLOSURE (SPONSORED):  I first published this recipe in September 2018.  At that time, I used a complimentary jar of sweet salad cubes from Mt. Olive Pickles.
In 2018, I contacted the company to respectfully request complimentary jars because I like them.  Thrilled when they arrived!
I have not been paid to endorse their products.  All comments are my own.

WHAT ARE ANGEL EGGS?

The inspiration for the name came from my precious aunt (75 years young) who said to me:   “Angel sounds better than deviled eggs.”   

I agree.  Your thoughts? 

 

THE INGREDIENTS

Mayo, chopped onions, sweet salad cubes (or sweet relish) and yellow mustard. 

The surprise ingredient is sweet salad cubes.  They add flavor and a slight crunch.  If you prefer a smoother texture, use sweet relish. 

Both are delicious.

SLICING TIP

Slice hard boiled eggs with a serrated knife. 

Cuts without tearing. 

Much more effective than a smooth edge in my opinion.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT HARD BOILED EGGS

1. Salt helps hard-boiled eggs peel easier.  The eggs do not absorb salt while boiling in salted water.

2. Read Southern Living‘s article about peeling eggs.

3. Read Cooking Light‘s article about boiling eggs.    

 

 

CREATIVE SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Consider serving an Angel Egg in a cupcake liner or in a small glass bowl.  Both make a lovely presentation.

PRETTY PRESENTATION 

To make a pretty presentation, arrange a small leaf of Italian parsley or cilantro on top of each Angel Egg. 

Angel Eggs Casserole Dish  

 

 

Carry Angel Eggs to a dinner party or any type of gathering in a casserole dish with a lid. 

Place each Angel Egg in a cupcake cup and arrange in the casserole dish.  Cover and carry.   Simple and effective.

 

SERVING SUGGESTION

Make ahead and store prepared eggs in a tightly sealed container.  Refrigerate up to two days before serving.

    I’m so delighted to have found your website. I agree with your aunt; who would want to eat anything named for the devil? My next door neighbor is hosting a tea party and your “angel” eggs sound like the perfect savory addition to the spread.
