"I LOVE deviled eggs and have started making them regularly so it was time to add a kick and this recipe was it. Follow Martha Stewart's method for perfect hard-boiled eggs where you cover eggs with ..." See morecool water by 1 inch in a saucepan and slowly bring water to a boil over medium heat. When the water has reached a boil, cover and remove from heat. Let sit 12 minutes. Transfer eggs to a colander; place under cool running water to stop the cooking. Eggs can be peeled immediately. Follow this recipe once and then use it as a launching board to make up your own deviled egg combinations."

"Big hit at the party! I added more Frank's hot sauce and more Cajun seasoning to the recipe, otherwise, I made the recipe exactly as directed. These eggs were gobbled up so fast. Everyone who tried..." See more one, ate at least 1 more along with a recommendation for others to try. It's the heat that makes them so special; it's so unexpected. Delicious!"
