Ingredients
  

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs
  • 2 - 3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp. clamato juice
  • 1 tsp. tabasco/hot sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Caesar cocktail rim spice (recipe included)
  • Crumbled crispy bacon and chopped celery for extra flavour and texture

HOMEMADE CAESAR RIM SPICE BLEND - enough to make about 10 cocktails, or definitely ALL the eggs! We recommend making extra and saving in a mason jar!

  • 2 Tbsp. celery salt
  • 1 Tbsp. salt
  • 1 Tbsp. smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • ½ tsp. cayenne pepper (adjust to taste for spiciness)
  • Zest of 1 lemon or lime (optional, for extra citrus flavour)

Instructions
 

  • Hard boil the eggs by placing them in a pot of simmering, salty water and letting them cook gently for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the eggs from the pot and place them in icy cold water to cool.
  • Once cooled, peel the eggs and cut them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a bowl.
  • Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they are finely crumbled.
  • Add your mayo, clamato juice, tabasco, salt and pepper and mix everything until it’s smooth and creamy.
  • Taste. Adjust. Maybe add in a few bits of the celery, saving the rest for a garnish.
  • Dip each hollowed egg half in a plate or dish of the Caesar spice rim blend to coat, then spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg halves, until you’ve used up all the filling.
  • Top with bits of celery and bacon crisps and if you wish to add a tiny bit more Caesar spice to the top, go for it!
  • Place the devilled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill before serving.
  • Enjoy your Caesar cocktail-inspired devilled eggs as a tasty appetizer!
