I fell in love with Banh Mi several years ago when I had my first sub from a food truck in Portland, Oregon. I couldn't get enough of those fresh flavours! So I've taken those fresh flavours and transformed them into a unique and delicious devilled egg! These Banh Mi Devilled Eggs are bursting with all the freshness of mint, cilantro, carrots, cucumbers and onions and are a little spicy.

💭 Top tips
If you want to make the best devilled eggs, then you need to start with perfectly cooked eggs! (Video -How to Make Hard-boiled Eggs). Make sure you don't overcook the eggs because you'll end up with an unattractive dark ring around the yolk. This can also be avoided by running cold water over the just-cooked eggs until they are completely cooled. Then refrigerate the eggs in their shells until you’re ready to use them.
🌡️Storing
Hard-cooked eggs in the shell can be refrigerated up to one week IN TOTAL So, once they are out of the shell, they need to be eaten. You can read more about storing hard-boiled eggs HERE. If you prepare the deviled eggs in advance, I do not recommend you do this more than a day in advance.
And they should be consumed within two days, which is generally considered the maximum amount of timed deviled eggs remain safe to eat when stored in the refrigerator. And because eggs are perishable, they should be kept chilled at all times. Once prepared, store them in the fridge right away. You can make them in advance, but if I'm making them for others, I'm only making them the day before, at most. They taste best fresh!
