Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
- -------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup fresh basil leaves
24 hard cooked eggs
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese -- freshly grated
salt and freshly ground pepper -- to taste
Bring a small pan of water to boil. Drop in basil leaves for 30 seconds to
blanch. Drain and rinse under cold water. (Blanching helps the basil to
stay green.)
Peel the eggs and cut in half. Place yolks in a food processor with the
blanched basil leaves, mayonnaise, and cheese. Puree until smooth. Season
to taste with salt and pepper. Fill egg white halves with filling. Cover
with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
