Deviled Egg Filling proves that the little things on the table can carry a lot of American character. Not exactly a sauce, but a condiment-like American picnic food. Across the country, recipes like this help define the meal: brightening sandwiches, dressing salads, crowning burgers, spooning over biscuits, or turning a simple spread into something people remember. It is practical, proud, and built for the kind of generous table where a sauce, jam, relish, pickle, dip, or dressing can steal the show.
