Deviled Eggs with Basil Aoili & Fried Capers
Orangette's perfectly timed blog entry, came in handy today as I had some ideally aged eggs on deck... "As a general category, I love deviled eggs. But of all deviled eggs, all types and all recipes, I think these are my favorite. The yolk filling is fairly standard, but when you add that basil aioli, which smells and tastes like June itself, this month that we have waited all stinking winter for, you get something entirely new. And with the briny crunch of capers, each one exploded in hot oil so that they look like strange, delicate flowers and dissolve on your tongue, yes, I really do think these are my favorite. Just be sure to buy your eggs a week or two ahead of time, because old eggs peel more easily than fresh ones. Actually, you know, if you buy now, you’ll be all set for the Fourth of July."
