Cooled hard-boiled eggs are peeled and halved lengthwise, with the yolks then removed.
The yolk matter is then mashed and mixed with a variety of other ingredients, such as mayonnaise and mustard.
Tartar sauce or Worcestershire sauce are also sometimes used.
Other common flavorings include: diced pickle or pickle relish, salt, ground black pepper, powdered cayenne pepper or chipotle chilies, turmeric, vinegar, ketchup, green olives, pimentos, poppyseed, thyme, cilantro, minced onion, pickle brine, caviar, cream, capers, and sour cream.
Contemporary versions of deviled eggs tend to include a wider range of seasonings and added ingredients, such as garlic, horseradish, wasabi, sliced jalapeños, cheese, chutney, capers, salsa, hot sauce, ham, mushrooms, spinach, sour cream, caviar, shrimp, smoked salmon or other seafood, and sardines.

The yolk mixture is then scooped into each egg "cup" made from the firm egg whites.
Old Bay, paprika, curry powder, cayenne, chives, or dill may be sprinkled on top as a garnish.
The finished eggs may be further decorated with caviar, anchovy, bacon, shrimp, or herring.
