This single-subject cookbook would have been a good one for our picnic day because, even though it's not necessarily the best idea to leave eggs out unrefrigerated on a warm, sunny day, deviled eggs are the must-have picnic food of many, many people. Just ask my grandmother. Deviled Eggs: 50 Recipes from Simple to Sassy is a collection of recipes that makes deviled eggs a little more interesting. It starts out with tips on making the perfect hard-boiled eggs, such as getting the yolks centered in the middle of the white (making the optimal presentation) and keeping the yolks bright yellow. Most of the recipes are short and can be made with ingredients that are already in your pantry or fridge, adding in sun-dried tomatoes, avocado or wasabi. Check out this recipe for "The Devil Made Me Do It" eggs, which are kicked up with habenero sauce and curry powder and are likely to be a hot dish at your next egg-making event.
