This year I volunteered to bring deviled eggs to the in-laws for Easter, and couldn’t decide between a safe-but-delicious classic kind, a Japanese ginger-miso deviled egg, which I knew my husband would go crazy for, or a Mexican street corn “helotes,” version, which I suspected the family would love, but was still a bit of a gamble. So I decided to just make all three!
After serving them I asked which everyone liked the most, so I knew which ones to make for next year, and all three were a HUGE hit, equally! So I guess i’ll be making a variety every year! It’s a little bit more energy and time consuming to do it this way, but so worth it. They look pretty arranged together, and it pleases a big crowd with lots of different tastes.
I feel bad for posting these recipes AFTER Easter, but they are really a great snack or appetizer all year round. I hope you guys enjoy. Let me know if you have a favorite! 🙂
