Gwanny's "double Eggs"

Submitted by Gwanny Hill

"Since he was able to talk, grandson Jonathan, has requested some of Gwanny's Double Eggs when he comes to visit--it took a while to realize he meant DEVILED Eggs. The special ingredient is the added small boiled irish potato which takes on the tastes of the condiments, and extends the amount of filler in the egg. The amount of condiments to add is dependant upon your own taste and consistancy desired."

Who knew that potato in deviled eggs would be so good and such a filling extender? I rolled the yolk mix into balls to resemble the whole yolks so it looks like half of the whites are missing. The potato matches the yolk so well in texture and consistency that nobody would ever know it was there. This makes a mild flavored but yumm egg. It's a keeper!
