Another Attempt at the Pickled Eggs!!!

[hypnofrogstevie]

We use white distilled vinegar. I still dont understand why its taking 22 days for yours. Let me know what you get after using white distilled. I think another reason people use beets is that you can see how far the color has penetrated the egg white.

Stevie, you said here you all used the apple cider vinegar...

Pickled egg recipe we use in this house is:

12-24 eggs
1 clove garlic (chopped)
Half of a small onion (chopped)
Apple cider vinegar
1 can of beets with juice
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste

Hard boil the eggs and peel them. Add them in a large bowl with all the ingredients. Let them sit for a week or 2 and enjoy!

Its really good

I would like to know which one works better but like Squirrel, don't really want to waste anymore eggs. You are likely right about the beet coloring though.

I just had an idea.

Perhaps chop them up and make egg salad? I really don't want to waste them and that would probably work.

Thats how we did it last time and it came out perfectly. white dstilled is more flavorful though. If you add beet juice to your next batch with the white distilled. Wait a week then cut one in half. If it pnetrated halfway/almost to the yolk then they are done.

Thanks for the help but I changed the title of this post to read my "last" ever attempt at pickled eggs, lol!!!!!

 

[hypnofrogstevie]

Lol! Next time we make them I will make you a jar and ship them.

For some reason I cannot imagine that being a package I will be too excited to get!!! I think pickled eggs are just not my "thang"!! Although, like Squirrel, they do look cool in a jar in the fridge!!!

I will try to make mine look "cool" Maybe some rainbow colored eggs with bits of tomatoes and olives sifting around? Would look neat on a tabletop?

Yes, gorgeous, but probably would still taste sharp and a bit bitter..best to just look at them I think!!!

why do they need to "sit" in to fridge? no one boiled the vinegar mix before adding to the eggs? you should get better penetration with hot packing
