After years of knowing how to hard boil eggs I had to retrain myself when we started to get fresh eggs from our backyard chickens.
There are few ways to perfectly boil a freshly laid egg, one bring water to boil and add the eggs for 14 minutes and finish with an ice bath. If you let them cool completely they will nicely peel for you.
A second method and my new favorite is to hard boil the eggs in the Instant Pot. I have embraced this lovely countertop appliance and use it often. I got the 10 QT after having the 6 QT for a week and realizing that it was way to small for a family of 8.
I don’t have the Instant Pot egg rack insert so I just used the wire rack that comes with the Instant Pot and spread them out. I put one cup of water in the bottom of the pot, then the wire rack and fill it with as many eggs as I can fit then start the Instant Pot for 5 minutes. After manually releasing the pressure place the eggs in an ice bath and voila, perfectly hard-boiled eggs with easy-to-peel shells!
How to Make Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs
Start with 12 hard-boiled peeled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. As you slice remove yolks and put them in a mixing bowl. Mash the cooked yolks with a fork and add mayonnaise, rice vinegar, ground mustard, and sugar.
Stir this yolk mixture until its well combined. Then mix in the jalapeño and bacon.
Fill each egg with the yolk mixture with a piping bag if you are going for presentation or just spoon the mixture evening in all 24 egg halves.
Lastly, sprinkle the eggs with paprika and chill until ready to serve.
