Preparation
- Make the Beet Pickle by combining all pickling ingredients. Bring to a boil, then set aside to cool in a bowl or container large enough to hold the beet liquid and eggs.
- Cover the eggs in cold water, and bring to a boil. Stir eggs gently a few times as the water comes to a boil to keep the yolks in the center, then turn off the heat, cover, and set aside for 11-12 minutes. Stir 2 times in the first 3 minutes.
Pickling the Eggs
- For Pink Pickled Deviled Eggs: Remove the shell and place the eggs into beetroot pickling liquid for 2 hours. Drain and pat dry with a paper towel.
- For Halloween 'Dinosaur' Webbed Eggs: Crack the shells of the eggs. Leaving the shells on, submerge the eggs completely in the beet liquid. Leave for 4 hours, then remove from the liquid and peel the eggs.
Making the Filling
- Gently remove the yolks from the whites. In a food processor, combine the yolks, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, butter, and mayo, then blend until light and fluffy. Alternatively, mash yolks finely with a fork then beat in the other ingredients until smooth, light, and fluffy.
- If the yolk mixture becomes too warm, place it in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill, then blend again to emulsify.
Serving
- Pipe or spoon the mixture into the egg whites and garnish with desired toppings such as bacon, cucumber, radish, capers, pickled red onion, chives, or dill.
