Wasabi Devilled Eggs
- 6 eggs
- Place eggs in a pot of cold, salted water. Bring to boil and boil for 1 minute. Remove pot from heat, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Drain, and run eggs under cold water to cool. Peel. Cut eggs in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop yolk into a small bowl, reserving whites on a plate.
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon pickled ginger, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Mash yolks with a fork, stir in mayonnaise, wasabi, ginger and chives, and season with salt and pepper. Place yolk mixture in a piping bag and pipe into the whites, or spoon them in. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
- Cucumber Salad:
- 1 seedless cucumber, thinly sliced, preferably using a mandoline
- Bring a pot of water to boil. Add cucumber slices, bring back to boil and drain at once. Run cucumber slices under cold water to stop the cooking and maintain the colour. Leave cucumbers to sit in strainer for 30 minutes, then blot with paper towels to remove moisture and place in a bowl.
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste
- Stir together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and wasabi in a bowl. Just before serving, pour mixture over cucumber slices and toss to coat.
- 2 tablespoons mint, chopped
- Place cucumbers on a platter, or divide among individual serving plates, and top with eggs. Sprinkle with mint.
- Prep time: 20 minutes, plus cooling time
- Cook time: 15 minutes
- Instead of cutting the eggs in half, a neat way to serve a whole egg per person is to take a slice off the top, scoop out the yolk, mix it with the mayo and pipe or spoon it back in.
