For the best flavor, use high-quality mayonnaise. Duke's and Hellmann's are both excellent choices. Be sure to drain the shrimp very well to prevent a watery filling. If you don't have fresh dill on hand, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of dried dill weed. However, fresh dill provides a much brighter and more vibrant flavor. These deviled eggs can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. For a vegetarian option, omit the shrimp and add a finely diced avocado for a creamy and flavorful filling.

Jun 15, 2025I didn't have fresh dill, so I used dried, and they were still really good. But I'll definitely try them with fresh dill next time.
