Ingredients List
- Eating Well 11/12/93
- 1 Dozen eggs
- 1/2 c Fresh (not dry) breadcrumbs
- (from about 1-1/2 slices)
- 1/4 c Reduced-fat sour cream
- 2 tb Chopped chives or scallions
- 1 tb Dijon mustard
- Salt/pepper to taste
- Paprika for garnish
Directions
Lightly tap each egg with the back of a spoon to make a hairline crack.
Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a
simmer and cook over medium heat for 9 minutes. Start timing as soon as the
water begins to simmer. Drain immediately and set the pan and eggs under
cold running water for 1 minute. Drain again and vigorously shake the eggs
in the pan to loosen the shells. Peel the eggs and slice in half
lengthwise.
Scoop out yolks, reserving 6 for another use. Set aside the whites. In a
small bowl, mash the remaining 6 yolks. Mix in breadcrumbs, sour cream,
chives or scallions and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon the
yolk mixture into the hollows in the egg whites and garnish with a
sprinkling of paprika. Arrange on a platter. (The eggs can be prepared
ahead and stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
