Deviled eggs, also known as deviled eggs in the United States or simply as stuffed eggs in various Latin American countries, are a classic appetizer that has transcended borders and eras. Their origin dates back to Ancient Rome, where boiled eggs were already seasoned to accompany festive meals. The word "deviled" refers to the traditional use of spicy or highly seasoned condiments that enhance the flavor of the filling. In countries like Mexico, Colombia, or Argentina, this dish may present variations in the ingredients, but the essence remains the same: boiled eggs, filled with a creamy and savory mixture.
In Latin America, they are often simply called stuffed eggs or eggs with mayonnaise, and their preparation may include local ingredients that add a distinctive touch. They are ideal for family gatherings, parties, or as a quick and delicious snack.
