Historic Deviled Eggs

Dating back to Roman times there has been some variation of the food we call deviled eggs. Before the common advent of mayonnaise people used butter, cheese, or other dairy products for the creamy texture. The current name comes from the Victorian Era where Deviled referred to a highly spiced food. These eggs definitely fit that bill.
