Pickled eggs

[crooked stripe]

Not a pickled egg eggspert but I put a can of small beats (juice too) in a jar with 1/2 water 1/2 vinegar mixture then place 3-4 cloves of garlic and refrigerate for 2-3 days. Can't wait any longer. Shake container a couple times a day to make sure all is mixed then eat. My favorite is to put a couple drops of hot sauce on the eggs and enjoy. Making pickled eggs is like making a meat loaf. What ever you like try it. John

Im not sure of the recipe but my grandmother starts with pickled red beets, I know there is sugar, vinegar and whole cloves but im not sure what else. I have seen others pickle them like pickles but have never had them.

I just put my eggs in the pickle juice when the pickles are gone or almost. I love the kosher dill pickles w/ garlic yum. simple and easy. a gal at work told me to try this really liked it.

Do you refrig afterwards? or will vinegar keep them from spoiling?

Some of my Grandma's favorites:

INGREDIENTS
12 eggs
1 (15 ounce) can pickled beets
1/4 cup sliced red onion (optional)


DIRECTIONS
Place egg in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, and cool under cold running water. Once the eggs cool for a bit, roll the eggs back and forth on the counter to crush the shells, then return to the cold water for up to an hour. They will peel very easily then.
Place the peeled eggs in a large bowl or large wide mouthed jar with a lid. Pour in the pickled beets and juice. Add onions if you are using. Let them set in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours - 2 days is best if you can wait that long. Turn jar or stir once or twice to be sure that the eggs are evenly colored. Slice eggs in half and arrange on a tray to serve.
