The creator or founder of this day is still unknown. Deviled Eggs are an ancient dish that originated in Rome, with reference to the recipes salvaged from Ancient Rome. However, the word “deviled” didn’t appear until the 18th century when it was used to explain the highly seasoned, boiled, or fried eggs.
The term “deviled” becomes usual to describe the hot seasonings by the time of the 19th century. Now, not all deviled egg recipes are spicy, but a little cayenne pepper or hot mustard can always give them an extra kick.
In Netherlands, France, and Germany, deviled eggs are often dished up in a variation with parsley and fresh tomato. The other name of Deviled Egg is Eggs Mimosa, Stuffed Eggs, or Dressed eggs. They are hard-boiled eggs that have been stripped, sliced in half, and filled with the hard-boiled egg’s yolk combined with other ingredients like mayonnaise and mustard
