Description
Kimchi Deviled Eggs are a vibrant fusion appetizer combining the creamy texture of traditional deviled eggs with the spicy, tangy kick of kimchi and crisp pickled vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup carrots, julienned
- ¼ cup radishes, julienned
- 6 large eggs (hard-boiled)
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- ¼ cup kimchi, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- Salt, to taste
- Black sesame seeds, to garnish
- Fresh cilantro leaves, chopped, to garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl or jar, combine the apple cider vinegar, water, and white sugar. Stir well until the sugar completely dissolves.
- Add the julienned carrots and radishes to the vinegar mixture. Let them sit and pickle for 20 to 30 minutes to develop the tangy flavor while you prepare the eggs.
- Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water by about 1 inch. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pot with a lid and turn off the heat. Allow the eggs to cook in the hot water for 15 minutes.
- Drain the hot water and run cool water over the eggs to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, carefully peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
- Gently remove the yolks from each egg half, keeping the whites intact. Transfer the yolks to a medium bowl and mash them thoroughly with a fork.
- To the mashed yolks, add mayonnaise, finely chopped kimchi, green onions, and sesame oil. Mix well until smooth and season with salt to taste.
- Use a small spoon or pastry bag to fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, allowing the filling to heap slightly above the edges.
- Top each deviled egg with some of the pickled carrots and radishes, sprinkle black sesame seeds, and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy!
