• Ready In: 50 mins
• Serves: 12
• Yields: 12 Far-East Deviled Eggs

Ingredients

• 12  eggs (save the carton they came in!)
• 1  inch  knob ginger, peeled and finely grated
• 3 -4  scallions, thinly sliced
• 2 -3  garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 2  tablespoons tamari (dark soy sauce)
• 3  dashes  hot sauce (add more if you like it spicy!)
• 2  tablespoons mayonnaise, use just enough to bind (eyeball it)
•  fresh ground black pepper, to taste
•  cilantro, chopped, to garnish

Directions

1. Put the eggs in a saucepan and fill it halfway with cold water. Set over high heat. When the water boils, turn off the heat and place a lid over the pot. Let sit 10 minutes.
2. Place the pot of cooked eggs in the sink and run some cold water over the eggs until both the water and pan feel cool. When the eggs are cool enough to handle take them out of the water. Roll each egg on a work surface to crack the shell then carefully peel off the eggshells.
3. Place the eggs on a cutting board and cut a quarter off the egg from the fat round end to expose the yolk. Next, cut just a sliver of the opposite end, the pointed end so the egg is able to sit upright without rolling over. Once all the eggs have been cu, scoop out their yolks into a medium size mixing bowl. Place the egg white halves back into the egg container for easy transporting and filling, make sure the holes are pointing up so that you are able to fill them.
4. Break the egg yolks up a little bit using a fork. Add in the ginger, scallions, garlic, tamari, hot sauce and mayo. Give it a good stir and a dash of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
5. Make yourself a fancy instant pastry bag by spooning the egg yolk mixture into a plastic re-sealable bag and squishing it all into one of the bottom corners. Snip off a small triangle from the bottom of the bag and squeeze out a bit of yolk mixture into each of the egg whites. Once all eggs are gilled, garnish them with cilantro, close the carton lid and your good to go.
