Deviled eggs seem to be a particular favorite of Sriracha lovers. This recipe is adapted fromThe Sriracha Cookbookby Randy Clemens (Ten Speed Press, 2011). Clemens says the Sriracha gives the yolk a gorgeous orange hue.

12 hard-cooked eggs
1/3 cup Sriracha mayonnaise (recipe below)
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. Using a fork, break up the yolks in a mixing bowl. Stir in the Sriracha mayo, mustard, salt and pepper and blend well.
Fill a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. Top with the chives.
Serve or cover and refrigerate.
