Deviled Eggs with Capers and Tarragon Preparation

Shell eggs, then cut in half lengthwise. Transfer yolks to a small bowl and mash with a fork. Mix in oil, mayonnaise, and mustard. Stir in minced celery, tarragon, capers, and shallot. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Spoon yolk mixture into whites (or use a pastry bag for a pretty effect).

Refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to blend.

Cover loosely and refrigerate.

Notes

Perfect flavor if allowed to sit for a little while in the refrigerator first (perhaps at least an hour). I added this information to the directions.

    Such a refreshing change from mustard/ pickle deviled eggs.

    Subtle flavor. Would also be good with a little more mustard. Could probably be made with all mayonnaise instead of mayonnaise and olive oil for a richer taste.
