Delicious Dill Pickle Deviled Eggs

Pickle_Deviled_eggs

Is there any party, picnic, or potluck that isn’t made infinitely better with a dish of deviled eggs? This old-fashioned appetizer is a staple at spring gatherings and certainly around Easter holiday dinners. This year, instead of the everyday recipe, serve a tray of these tangy dill pickle deviled eggs. This is why they’re called Deviled Eggs. They incredibly easy to prepare. Just hard-boil eggs, then mash the yolks with a bit of mayo, Dijon. Add a splash of pickle juice, finely chopped up Dill pickle, and some fresh dill, and you can take your deviled eggs to the next level. Here’s how to make perfectly hard-boiled eggs… or make hard-boiled eggs in an Instant Pot. Tip: Make sure your pickles are super finely chopped, or that you’re using a piping bag tip that the pieces can easily be squeezed out of. You don’t want to have to fight with a…

Odd foods that are dropped on New Year’s Eve instead of a ball

13 odd foods that are dropped on New Years Eve instead of a disco ballExpress-Times Photo | MATT SMITH

Every city has its own way of celebrating the turn of a new year. There’s no shortage of alcohol, parties and dazzling, dropping disco balls dangling from towers. But for some towns, this all seems just a bit too boring. Here are 13 towns that celebrate New Year’s Eve by dropping something a little more flavorful than a sparkly ball. https://www.instagram.com/p/BOme7KmDegD/?taken-by=rosaduartetv 1. A Peep (Bethlehem, Pennsylvania)  Peeps usually make their only appearance during Easter, but in Bethlehem, the town where the famous candy was invented, New Years Eve brings the annual “PeepFest.” Every year on the 31st of December, a gigantic 400-pound Peep is dropped at precisely 5:15 p.m., followed by a colorful fireworks display. The massive Peep is made out of fiberglass and therefore, unfortunately, it is inedible. However, the big yellow icon is still a joy to see and something locals look forward to at the end of every year. https://www.instagram.com/p/xFFif8vEEj/?tagged=moonpieovermobile 2.

Dill pickle potato salad is a new take on a picnic time classic

Dill pickle potato salad is a new take on a picnic time classic

Dill pickle potato salad is the perfect summer sidekick to barbecue, hot dogs, and just about any outdoor meal. Boiled potatoes are mixed with crunchy pickle pieces, minced onion, eggs and a creamy mustard dressing for a flavorful take on an old classic. Whether or not you’re a fan of potato salad, this is the recipe for you. As a full-blow mayo hater, I’m always looking for ways to work around recipes that call for it as an ingredient. This recipe still calls for some, but the zingy mustard and the briny pickles don’t let the taste, or consistency, of the mayo take center stage. Potato salad is usually just a side dish, but don’t be surprised if this one becomes the star of the meal. Dill Pickle Potato Salad Ingredients 5 russet potatoes, cubed (and peeled if you prefer) 1.5 tsp salt 5 eggs, hard-boiled, peeled and roughly…

Sonic Drive-In rolling out Pickle Juice slushies this summer

Pickle Slushie at SonicSonic

Who out there hasn’t craved a pickle-flavored frozen drink? Well, that’s probably most people. But Sonic Drive-In will roll out the new flavor in June. Maria Yagoda, a writer for Food & Wine, had the chance to sample the pickle juice snow cone slush recently at the company’s headquarters and came away impressed. “Sweet and tangy, the bright brine compensates for the over-savoriness you might have been worried about. You won’t understand why, but you’ll keep going back for more sips, likely until it’s all gone,” Yagoda writes for the magazine. Is this bright green drink something you’d be willing to take a chance on? Sonic is no stranger to unusual flavor combination in their frozen beverages. In the past, they’ve had peanut butter and bacon shakes, as well as a chocolate-covered jalapeno shake. More from Everybody Craves Also see, Pumpkin Pie Milkshake Recipe. Follow us on Instagram.

The uncertain origins of the Christmas Pickle ornament

The uncertain origins of the Christmas Pickle ornament

When it comes to holiday traditions, the Christmas pickle can be kind of a big dill — depending who you ask. Some families forgo hiding the odd ornament, yet in other homes it’s the most sought after item in the whole house. But where did this custom come from? Most people believe that hiding a pickle ornament somewhere in the tree is an Old World tradition that came to the United States with German immigrants in the 1800s. It’s said that whoever finds the pickle in the tree on Christmas morning will have good fortune in the coming year. In some families, the finder even gets a special present or gets to be the first to open his presents. But as it turns out, most Germans have never heard of the Christmas pickle, and you’d be hard pressed to find a German’s tree adorned with this garish green, sparkly decoration. Other stories of origin make…
