Deviled Eggs

How long ahead can I make deviled eggs and still have them taste fresh? I know they keep for several days but want them fresh tasting for Easter dinner. TIA

I have only ventured one day ahead and they were fine.

I would be afraid to fix them more than one day ahead. I love deviled eggs and frequently make them for family dinners.

I make them the same day I will serve them. IMO, they are best served freshly prepared. Any leftovers I toss the next day.

I boil the eggs the night before, cool them down, put them in the fridge in a bowl and chill them overnight. I make them up early in the morning and then chill them again until ready to be eaten. I like them fresh - to me, they taste best.

Anybody else besides me add a little horseradish to the mayo/mustard yolk filling? Puts the devil into deviled eggs.

I LOVE deviled eggs!

I love horseradish in almost everything! Yes!

I don't use prepared mustard, I use the mustard powder to keep the yolk mixture from being too wet. I like the yolk of my deviled egg to be on the firm side.

@violann

Excellent point! I always drain the horseradish as dry as I can get it before adding it to the yolks!

@violann No, but that's a great suggestion! Thanks!

I've made them 2 days ahead and they didn't taste as fresh as 1 day ahead (or freshly made) I wouldn't do more than 1 day now...

I agree with a lot of posters here, after 24 hours the yolk mixture just doesn't look fresh, no matter how tightly you store them.

The better term is "dry mustard" and you don't need much. It tastes the same to me. I don't make it very spicy so no need for different recipes.

If you go to the Betty Crocker recipe web site, you can search by Classic Deviled Eggs.
