A deviled egg is simply a stuffed egg with the addition of hot spices. There are innumerable recipes for stuffed eggs and they have been eaten since the Roman Empire.
 

6 hard cooked eggs.
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons mustard
1 shallot, minced
Salt, (or celery salt), and pepper to taste
Cayenne pepper or paprika, as needed
Minced chives, as needed


Boil the eggs, allow them to cool, and then cut them in half lengthwise. 

Scoop out the yolks and mash with the mayo, mustard, shallot, salt and pepper.

Place a scoop of the mixture in each of the twelve egg white halves. 

Sprinkle with chives and a generous amount of cayenne, or if you’re not a little devil, use paprika instead.
