Combine them with the creamy mayonnaise, tender shrimp, finely chopped green onions, fragrant fresh dill weed, a dash of lime juice, quality prepared Dijon-style mustard, a hint of hot pepper sauce, and a pinch of ground black pepper. |
| 4. | With precision, spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the flavorful egg yolk mixture into each awaiting egg white. Garnish each deviled egg with a sprig of fresh dill weed for a touch of elegance. Allow the deviled eggs to chill in the refrigerator until ready to be served. |
