"A nice extravagant way to end the year! Also to start the New Year! New Year 2011 I made stuffed eggs using wasabi caviar. My eggs peeled so nice I just had to stuff them. Using less mayo/ smart balance. And a touch of horseradish mustard to the yolk mixture."

Love it done this way! Used red caviar only, salted mildly, and used white pepper. 4 eggs were VERY finely diced, and the other 4 eggs were pulsed in the processor twice - for a consistency somewhere between a fine dice and a mush. The onions were diced to a 2mm size - really fine. The presentation was as lovely as your current picture, if not better - but no one gave the opportunity to take a picture since it was DEVOURED immediately. Love ya Rita!

This is great. I started making this receipe after having something similar on a cruise. This is much better.

Talk about appearance - WOW- This is so attractive with the red & Black caviar covering the mashed eggs.I cut back the mayo to 1/2 cup and added 1/4 cup sour cream. Used a sweet Chilian onion. The egg and caviar complement each other perfectly.. Make sure that you drain the caviar well - especially the black (It's dyed) and if any juice runs ir will ruin the appearance. This disappeared in a hurry. Thanks RitaL for a lovely, easy appetizer.

I`ve also made this with a 1/4 cup sour cream added to the recipe.
