Method
Boil and chill the eggs
- Place the eggs in a pot and cover with cold water, then bring to a boil. Cover the pot, remove from heat, and let stand 12 minutes.
- Chill the eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes. Peel and halve lengthwise, then keep the halves ready to fill.
Make the spicy chili garlic filling
- Mash the yolks with Kewpie mayonnaise, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until smooth. Continue mashing until the mixture looks glossy and evenly combined.
Fill and top
- Pipe the filling into the egg whites. Fill each half so the top is slightly mounded for a neat finish.
- Spoon a little chili crisp over each egg. Use a light layer so the chili crisp stays visible and glossy.
- Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions, then serve immediately. Add garnish right before serving to keep the topping crisp.
Notes
Pro tip: boil-to-stand timing is key—once you remove from the heat, start your 12-minute timer to keep yolks tender and not dry. Store assembled deviled eggs covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; add chili crisp and garnish just before serving for best crunch. Freezing is not recommended because the yolk filling texture changes. For a lower-sodium option, use low-sodium soy sauce and keep the chili garlic sauce the same.
