Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs

Friday, October 4, 2024
Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs make a stunning appetizer for holiday entertaining. A favorite easy Thanksgiving appetizer recipe to save time since they can be made ahead of time. They combined classic deviled eggs with smoked salmon, fresh dill, and fresh chives for a delicious mouthful in every bite. They are the perfect finger food. 

Other Appetizers we love for the holidays are Smoked Salmon Dip, Greek Feta Dip and Hot Crab Dip

Have you started planning your Thanksgiving feast yet? 

Whether you have or haven't you have to add Smoke Salmon Deviled Eggs to your menu! They look so luxurious, but are actually a fairly easy to make recipe.

Back around Easter when I shared the way I make Easy Peel Hard Boiled Eggs I had promised the recipe for these Smoke Salmon Deviled Eggs. Colt had taken photos, and some how the recipe I had written down disappeared. I still don't know where it went. 

So as promised I finally remade them, and wrote down the measurements. They are a bit of a twist on my Mother-in-law's classic deviled eggs. She uses sweet pickle juice instead of dill and no herbs, but they are absolutely divine for a basic recipe. I'll have to share the recipe hopefully sooner then later.

If you aren't big on the fresh herbs for a garnish you can use extra smoked salmon like the last photo or just a little cayenne pepper or smoked paprika or you could just add a little of everything!

You'll need 8 Easy Peel Hard Boiled Eggs. You can double or triple this recipe as needed. 

Cool in cold ice water after cooking.

Cut eggs in half and remove egg yolks. Set egg whites aside on a platter.

Mashed Egg Yolk with mayonnaise added.

Use a fork or food processor, and break egg yolks up until finally smashed.

Add 1/4 cup Mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons Sour Cream. Using a mixer, hand mixer, or food processor beat until light, and creamy. 

I find this makes for a creamier filling then just mixing by hand. Beat until super creamy.

Egg Yolk, Pickle Juice, Creamed Horseradish, Mustard, Granulated Garlic, Cayenne Pepper, Ground Pepper in a stainless steel mixing bowl.

Beat in:
  • 2 tablespoons Dill Pickle Juice
  • 1 tablespoon Creamed Horseradish Sauce (add more or less to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons Mustard ( I used yellow this time, but have used grainy in the past)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Granulated Garlic 
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper or Smoked Paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Pepper
Scrape down sides of bowl, and mix well.

Smoked Salmon, Chopped Dill, and Chopped Chives added to Egg Yolk for Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs.

Add:
  • 3 ounces Smoked Salmon, Bones and Skin Removed
  • 1 tablespoon Finely Chopped Fresh Dill
  • 1 tablespoon Finely Chopped Fresh Chives
Beat until well combined. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.


Smoked Salmon Deviled Egg Filling.

Taste filling, and add salt if needed. The smoked salmon and pickle juice are both salty so it will depend on how salty they both are if you will need any additional salt. 

It's much easier to add a little additional salt then to salt early on only to discover your filling is too salty at the end.

Divide filling between eggs. You can use 2 spoons, a large ziplock bag with the corner cut off, or large pastry bag tip to fill eggs.

Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs topped with chopped dill and chives.

Dust eggs with Cayenne Pepper or Smoked Paprika. Sprinkle with additional fresh chopped Dill and Chives or...

Or garnish with additional Smoked Salmon. It's absolutely delicious either way! 

Refrigerate until cold.

Such a great fancy touch for holidays and parties. I love adding dill pickle juice, but the salmon is what really steals the show!
