Steps:
- Combine red food coloring and 1/3 cup water in a ramekin or small bowl; do the same with the blue food coloring in a separate ramekin.
- Gently insert 3 or 4 toothpicks about 1/4-inch deep through the center of an egg and balance it so that one end is dipped in one of the dyes. (Don't pierce the eggs too much, or they'll break after you halve them). Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes, depending upon how strong you like the colors. Dip the other end of the egg in the other dye so the eggs have red, white, and blue bands. Dye the rest of the eggs and let dry on paper towels.
- Slice colored eggs in half lengthwise and set the whites aside on a serving platter. Push the yolks through a sieve into a bowl or use a potato ricer.
- Mix mayonnaise, horseradish, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper into the yolks and stir until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer filling into a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
- Pipe filling into each egg white half. Place smoked paprika in a fine mesh strainer; hold the strainer over each egg half and tap gently to dust with paprika. Sprinkle deviled eggs with chives. Chill until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat, and simmer for exactly 9 minutes.
- Pour off most of the water and immediately run cold water over the eggs.
- Crack the eggshells, roll each egg between your palms and peel under running water.
- Cut a small sliver off both ends of each egg (so they'll sit without wobbling) and halve them crosswise, forming round cups.
- Remove the yolks, and mix with the mayonnaise through curry powder with a rubber spatula until smooth.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Mound the yolk mixture into the egg whites.
- (For fancier eggs, spoon the yolk mixture into a pastry bag with a star tip, and pipe the mixture into the egg whites to form rosettes).
- Refrigerate until served.
Tips:
- Select the freshest eggs possible: Fresh eggs will have a brighter yolk color and a thicker, more elastic white. This will result in a better-tasting and more visually appealing deviled egg.
- Hard-boil the eggs perfectly: To ensure that the eggs are cooked through but not overcooked, place them in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, depending on how hard you want them to be. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Use high-quality mayonnaise: Mayonnaise is the base of the deviled egg filling, so it's important to use a good-quality mayonnaise that you enjoy the taste of. Look for a mayonnaise made with real eggs and oil, and avoid mayonnaise that contains a lot of sugar or preservatives.
- Season the filling to taste: The filling for deviled eggs can be seasoned with a variety of different ingredients, such as mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Taste the filling as you go and adjust the seasonings until you reach the desired flavor.
- Garnish the deviled eggs creatively: Deviled eggs can be garnished with a variety of different ingredients, such as paprika, chives, bacon bits, or crumbled blue cheese. Get creative and have fun with your garnishes!
Conclusion:
Blue deviled eggs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With their creamy, tangy filling and colorful garnish, they are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a simple but impressive appetizer, give blue deviled eggs a try. You won't be disappointed!
