Randy's Pickled Eggs

"I LOVE Pickled Eggs but I've never made them & being Easter weekend, I thought it would be the perfect time to give it a try! I looked on the Zaar & found 5 recipes that interested me, but no 1 was what I was really looking for. I decided to combine them & add a few of my own touches...this is what I came up with (sort of...) I made them outdoors on the campstove so I didn't smell up the house & annoy the wife. LOL! *(PLEASE BE ADVISED: I did NOT actually measure anything, but the amounts below should be close, so add, subtract or change whatever you prefer.)"

directions

  • Cover the eggs with cold water -- about an inch above.
  • Bring to a boil & boil for 3 minutes -- remove from heat, cover & let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Drain the eggs & immediately place into ice cold water. Cool at least a couple hours -- overnight is best.
  • Peel the eggs & set aside -- cover, if need be.
  • Place the garlic on the bottom of the jar, along with some of the sliced onion.
  • Add the peeled eggs, alternating with the sliced onion & peppers, ending up with some onion & peppers on top.
  • Add the horseradish.
  • Combine 4 cups vinegar & the spices.
  • Bring to a boil -- cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Immediately pour over eggs.
  • Add more vinegar or hot water to completely cover about an inch, if needed.
  • When jar is cool enough to handle, refridgerate.
  • TRY to leave them alone for AT LEAST 7-10 days.
  • These should keep for about several weeks.

  1. Made the eggs yesterday and forgot to tell DH to leave them alone for some days - he had one for lunch today and was totally thrilled. My first approach to pickled eggs - seems like a first strike keeper! Thanks for posting" Made for Let's PARTY December 2009.
