"Recipes from the Chef's Kitchen"

To Hard Cook Eggs:
1) Put cold raw eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold
     water.
2) Cover, but lid partially tilted, to see eggs.
3) When just barely to a boil, cover lightly and
     remove from heat.
4) Let sit 10-17 minutes (10 minutes for fewer eggs,
     17 minutes for more eggs).
5) To cool - fill with cold water continuously until
     cooled down.  Refrigerate.

Ideas for Deviled Eggs:
1) Classic - mix yolk with mustard, mayonnaise, salt
     and pepper.
2) Herbed or Spiced - add you choice - dill, basic,
     oregano, tarragon, chives, chili powder, cumim,
     curry, etc.
3) Pesto - add pesto to the mashed yolk - you
     probably won't need any mayonnaise.
4) Toppings - Salsa, caviar, chutney, etc.
