For the perfect twist on a classic deviled eggs, try this incredibly flavorful miso deviled egg recipe! These miso deviled eggs are great for spring and brunch occasions and for any family gathering (and are the best deviled eggs I’ve ever had!)
Let’s talk about deviled eggs. At our family gatherings, they are among some of the first things to get gobbled up off of the brunch table. With Easter not too far off, deviled eggs are the perfect menu item to try. So, to mix things up a bit, I’m bringing miso deviled eggs for an Easter recipe. I encourage you to mix it up and use this miso deviled egg recipe to wow your family and friends!
A couple of weeks ago, I talked about how much red miso paste Nick brought home from the store – it was a huge tub (like this one)! So, I already made some miso butter for toast with hard boiled eggs, but there is still a ton left. I’m digging in and using it for these deviled eggs as well.
When I make deviled eggs, I rely on the classic Martha Stewart recipe – I used the recipe from Martha’s American Food cookbook as the base (I love that cookbook, so many good/classic recipes – side note, I heard that Martha Stewart has 94 cookbooks, makes me feel behind with my 2 published cookbooks).
Once the eggs are cooked (I like a 9 minute hard boiled egg), it’s time to peel them and fill them. I always love hearing this heated debate of how people like to peel eggs. There are plenty of options, but I’m a classic egg peeler all the way. What about you?
After peeling the eggs, cut them and it’s time to remove the yolk. This part can be tricky. I used to always break like half of the egg whites while doing this. But, now my favorite trick to getting the yolk out is to use the back of a spoon. It really helps the yolk slide out without breaking the egg white.
Combine the egg yolks with mayonnaise, miso and lemon juice and it’s time to fill the egg whites back up (also – since this is a 5-ingredient breakfast -brunch recipe, it’s perfect for Five-Ingredient Fridays)!
If you’d like to get a little fancy with the recipe, you can pipe the filling back into the eggs once combined. I’m guessing you don’t have piping bags laying around, but don’t worry, there is a super easy trick to use at home. Simply take a Ziploc bag and fold the edges down. Fill the bag with the yolk mixture, zip it up and clip a small bit of the corner off – voila, you have a piping bag!
These miso deviled eggs are perfect for Easter or anytime you’re having friends over for brunch!

This will be a strange Easter this year as we will not be hosting the family party for the first time in over 20 years.
To compensate though, I get to make one of our favorite lamb recipes, Pan Roasted Frenched Rack of Lamb, a meal that I “borrowed from a Pierre Franey episode about 25 or so years ago. There will be grilled asparagus and a cauliflower/potato puree
My kids grew up watching Saturday morning “Cartoons” with dad, except we watched Channel 2 , the local PBS station, and the cartoon characters were Jaques Pepin, Julia Child, Martin Yan and the aforementioned Pierre.
To try an have some semblence of family, we are coordinating with folks to have a pre-dinnervirtual wine party across 3 time zones!
Sweetphi says
This will definitely be a strange Easter. Thank you so much for sharing your comment. I LOVED hearing about the Saturday morning “Cartoons” – so so great! My toddler son (almost 3) loves watching cooking shows, then he runs into my office where my cookbook collection is and always wants to find a recipe and make what he saw on TV. I think I might need to find that lamb recipe, it sounds amazing. Also, what a great idea about the virtual wine party, I am going to try that with some friends, so thank you for the idea!!! Hope you and your family stay safe, and thank you again for your lovely comment.

Usually I make a ham for Easter. This year since it will just be me and my husband, I think we will grill out. The one thing I like to do is make dessert when the kids come home (normally I don’t make sweets – to tempting). I think this year I will still make a dessert for the two of us.
Sweetphi says
I think grilling out sounds lovely. I was just talking to my husband about that, so thank you for sharing, it’s now top of my mind. This year it will be so different, I hope you and your family stay safe, and I hope you find a lovely dessert for two (I have two recipes I’d like to share that might be of interest to you – https://sweetphi.com/5-ingredient-pear-crumble-two/ and https://sweetphi.com/5-ingredient-dessert-chocolate-cake-two/ )
Thank you again for commenting.

We are like everyone, it will be a strange Easter this year for my husband and I . I have gone from working 60-65 hours. Week and 6 days a week to being laid off like so many on March 27 I will find a special dessert to make but am thinking, I may order from one of the local restaurants who are trying to stay afloat. I typically make turkey and ham. A long post to say I still am grateful and blessed and trying to figure out something I can do to give back so plan to donate blood next week. (I know that sounds like such a small thing, but it will leave me tired for days. God Bless You All. Stay well.
Sweetphi says
I am so sorry to hear that you were laid off, it breaks my heart at the current situation, and I truly appreciate you sharing that with me. Your positive attitude and desire to help others even during these times is heartwarming, thank you for sharing this!

It will be a different kind of Easter, for sure, this year. Without family and friends to help us celebrate, I am afraid to make a big traditional ham dinner for just the 3 of us because I have been extra careful in food prep these past few weeks, avoiding waste as much as possible. But I still want to do something special to mark it as a holiday and to have a nice family dinner, hopefully on the patio, if the weather cooperates! So I have decided to make Easter dinner a celebration of faith that we will make our way through this and a celebration of the local bounty that surrounds us by supporting local farms.
We will have a salad of early spring greens from our local greenhouse with nut crusted goat cheese from a local dairy, fresh bread (from my oven), and I will be grilling up bison steaks from a nearby specialty farm and picking up pies from a (another) nearby berry farm that specializes in fruit pies, along with a pint of their homemade ice cream.
It is more important than ever to shop what is local and fresh! Support the farmers, fishermen, and dairies whenever you can.
Sweetphi says
Thank you so so much for sharing this. Your comment gave me goosebumps because it is so special what you’re doing. I love the idea of a celebration of faith and local bounty, and all the recipes you’re making at home. I too have been trying to support local and fresh, we have a favorite restaurant that in addition to offering ‘meal kits’ to make at home, offers food from local farmers and small businesses (like the local chocolatier!) Thank you again for sharing your lovely ideas.

Well, this year Easter dinner will just be the boys and I. My wife is a nurse and works every weekend. Amid the current crisis, she is unable to get any extra time off work. With her profession, and mine as a fireman, we’ve decided to totally lock our family down as to not potentially pass this virus onto anybody else, including our old and fragile parents. Its a pretty difficult time for us and our parents, they can’t see their grandchildren for a very long time! Everything is pretty much on hold for the next few months and maybe longer! With that said, we might be making homemade pizza…It’s our favorite!
Sweetphi says
Thank you to you and your wife for your crucial jobs and sacrifice you’re making. Hearing this makes me tear up. The current situation is so heartbreaking. My family is also all staying put, and it’s hard and an adjustment to not see parents/grandparents who live a mile away. Your homemade pizza sounds like a lovely plan, thank you for sharing, and stay well!
Sara Williams says
These deviled eggs look amazing. Can’t wait to try them! Our Easter dinner is the good ‘ol standby – Ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, and fresh asparagus. It’ll be a little different this year, with no big family dinner, but we’ll make up for it next year!
Sweetphi says
Your easter dinner sounds amazing, thank you for sharing. It is definitely going to be different this year, I love your attitude of making up for it next year!
Linda Bick says
We love to have eggs Benedict on Easter morning, so I’m hoping Easter won’t be too weird this year, I haven’t been out of the house in over 4 weeks now and we don’t have any candy for a hunt….
Sweetphi says
Oh I love the idea of Eggs Benedict!!!! I might try to make those at home this year, thank you for the idea (and yes, agreed, this year it’s going to be so odd…I’m going to make a few homemade treats to put in the eggs I have from last year and make a few paper toys or origami to put in the easter eggs.)
