Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • cup yogurt I used full fat
  • 2 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish
  • 1 tablespoon spring garlic
  • 2 teaspoons fresh dill
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon country mustard
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon lemon zest
  • teaspoon cayenne powder
  • few grinds of black pepper
  • smoked trout
  • handful of microgreens

Instructions

  • Place the eggs in a large pot and fill the pot with enough water to cover the eggs by one to two inches. Bring to a simmer, but not a full boil in order to avoid cracking the eggs. Simmer for two minutes. Remove from the heat and cover the pot for 12 minutes.
  • Remove the eggs from the hot water and immerse them in cold water. Peel under cold running water, and slice in half.
  • Pull the white part of the egg gently aware from the yolk and remove the yolks into a bowl. Mash with a fork.
  • Add the remaining ingredients except the microgreens and smoked trout. Stir with a fork until as smooth as possible.
  • Spoon the egg mixture into a piping bag fitted with a piping tip, and scrape the filling towards the tip.
  • Hold the bag with both hands and squeeze the filling through the tip into the cavities of the eggs.
  • Top with pieces of smoked trout and a sprinkle of microgreens.

Notes

Creme fraiche or sour cream can be substituted for the yogurt, or mayonnaise for more traditional deviled eggs.
