How to Make Spider Web Deviled Eggs
Boiling the Eggs
Fill a deep pot halfway with water and add a teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water using a spoon and boil for 8-10 minutes. Transfer the boiled eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Once cooled, peel the shells carefully. You really need perfect hard boiled eggs for this recipe.
Preparing the Filling
Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the yolks.
In a bowl, mix the yolks with mustard, sour cream, mayonnaise, cayenne pepper, and minced onion until smooth.

- Slice olives in half lengthwise. Use one half as the spider’s body and slice the other half for the legs.
