Posted: 7/5/2007 5:50:02 PM | One Dozen Pickled Eggs
3 cups white vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1 or 2 bay leaves
Handful of Mixed Pickling Spices (purchased mixed)
Tie celery seed, bay leaves, and mixed pickling spices in a new J-Cloth or cheesecloth.
Mix the remaining ingredients in a pot and add the tied spices. Boil for 10 minutes.
Remove the spice bag, and pour the solution over boiled, peeled eggs.
The longer the eggs are in the vinegar the stronger the flavour. You can speed it up by putting a hole through each egg with a knitting needle.
I used to make these 4 dozen at a time and store them in the fridge, in a huge restaurant size relish jar.

Posted: 7/6/2007 1:17:50 PM | heres my recipe... :-)
2/3 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
12 hardboiled eggs, peeled
1 (16 ounce) can sliced beets
In a glass bowl (beet juice sometimes will stain plastic), whisk together sugar, salt, vinegar and 3/4 cup of juice from the tinned beets (you can discard any remaining juice); whisk until sugar is dissolved. In a larger glass bowl, place peeled eggs and beets. Pour dressing over eggs. Refrigerate overnight, covered (the colour will get more intense if left a day or two longer). | |

Posted: 7/9/2007 6:15:36 PM | you know the hot Penrose sausages? I eat all the sausages, well not in one sitting but over a couple of days ( I share a few...lol) but anyway
boil you up some eggs
peel them
let them cool
take a toothpick and stick a couple of holes in each eggs
drop them in the leftover weenie juice (the Penrose kind is the best I have tried)
let them set about 3-4 days
Oh yeah these are some good pickled eggs, the juice turns the eggs pink
they make great Pickled egg sandwiches
Take a pickled egg and cut it in half, lay it on a slice of white bread, put some Dukes Mayo on the other slice of bread, sandwich and enjoy!! | |

Let them sit for several days and, like Fist said, makes them kinda pinkish. Slice them open and its down right trippy inside. They are sweet and spicey. Nice addition to a salad! | |

shelf life of pickled eggs kept in the fridge
It may sound crazy but I know when my gram/mom used to make them-they kept in the fridge for at least a month. | |

Posted: 3/9/2008 8:14:52 PM | I have only tried pickled eggs once...they were rubbery, could have bounced them on the floor. I liked the taste but not the texture.
Is being rubbery normal for pickled eggs? | |

Posted: 3/9/2008 8:24:11 PM | There was a post on this just a few weeks ago, but here is my recipe:
PICKLED EGGS:
2 cups water
1 cup 7% vinegar
1/8 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pickling spices
1 teaspoon celery seeds
6 peppercorns
2 bay leaves
2 whole dried chili peppers
Boil brine for 10 mins, cool completely, meanwhile boil 12 eggs - 13 minus (no more)
and cool.
Place eggs in glass jar and pour cooled brine over eggs and refrigerate at least two days, one week is better ~ before using.
For color you can add a couple of canned beets with a couple of tablespoons of the liquid.
Naughtical: Yes, It is normal for the eggs to be rubbery, sort of. Care must be taken not to overcook the eggs; that helps to retain tenderness.

BUTTTTTTTTTT I am scared of the thought of pickled eggs!
are these good?.. I mean is this going to give me acid reflux?... are they really strong or salty? | |

Posted: 3/10/2008 1:10:25 PM | ^^^ I would think acid reflux should be the least of your worries.. it's the explosive back end you have to worry about more!!! | |

Posted: 3/19/2008 9:22:30 AM | I was just thinking about making some, but I decided to wait. With Easter coming there will be plenty of boiled eggs around the house for a while. Wonder if the kids would like a pickled egg hunt?
The beet thing is a new one to me. Pickled eggs are common around here. The are sitting in every bar and tavern, you can buy them at the gas station or grocery store. But I have never seen them made with beets.
Does it add much flavor, or is it more of a color thing? Funny never really thought of presentation as being important for an egg. | |

Posted: 3/19/2008 4:27:24 PM | | I think it's just for color...unless someone puts a can of "Harvard" beets in with the eggs..then they'll contribute lots of flavor... | |

Posted: 3/19/2008 4:53:24 PM | I used to make them and sell them to the local bar in town. This recipe is also good for the bologna you buy whole in a log and have sliced about 1/2 thick then halve each slice.
Large glass pickle jar--the wholesale size
Eggs/Bologna
White vinegar
Crushed peppers (like you use on pizza)
2-3 jalapeno peppers quartered
1 large onion sliced (separate rings)
1 can sliced beets/w juice
1 quartered habenero pepper if you want really hot
Layer all ingredients in jar, we left ours on counter/bar and every time you pass turn it top to bottom several times to get the peppers throughout as they settle. Seems to help the curing process also.
The beets are mostly for the color but if you like pickled beets they are good also. Two jars of hot pickled bologna and one of the eggs and we couldn't make them fast enough for the bar to stay in stock for a week. | |
