Deviled eggs are made by halving hard-boiled eggs and mixing the yolks with ingredients such as mayonnaise, mustard, and seasoning to create a creamy filling. The filled egg whites are then garnished and served, resulting in a smooth-textured appetizer with attractive presentation. The dish combines tender egg whites with a rich, tangy, and flavorful filling displayed in individual halves.
