Ready for Easter ----- Smoked-Cod Deviled Eggs

TOTAL TIME: 30 MIN SERVINGS: makes 8 deviled eggs (16 halves)

8         large eggs
1/2      cup finely chopped smoked cod (2 ounces)
1/3      cup mayonnaise
2         cornichons, cut into 1/4-inch dice, plus 2 teaspoons pickling liquid from the jar
2        teaspoons Dijon mustard
Salt
Old Bay seasoning, for sprinkling

1 .  In a large saucepan, cover the eggs with water and bring to a vigorous boil. Cover the saucepan, remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes.
2 .  Drain off the water and shake the pan gently to crack the eggs. Cool the eggs slightly under cold running water, then peel them under running water. Pat dry.
3 .  Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks. Transfer the yolks to a bowl and mash well with a fork. Stir in the cod, mayonnaise, cornichons, cornichon liquid and Dijon mustard. Season with salt. Mound the filling in the egg-white halves and sprinkle with Old Bay. Serve lightly chilled.
