Pickled Eggs

Submitted by Bobbie S.

"I see there are several pickled egg recipes already posted -- but there's always room for one more. Either you like pickled eggs -- or you hate them (and that's the way it is with my husband and me -- I'm the lover). Prep time does not include cooking the eggs."

 

• Ready In: 20mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 24 eggs

ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 cups sugar
• 2 cups vinegar
• 1 cup water
• 5 -6 tablespoons pickling spices, with bay leaves (see note)
• 3⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 2 (15 ounce) cans beets, including juice
• 2 dozen hard-boiled eggs, peeled

directions

1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a large saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil to dissolve sugar.
3. Place peeled eggs in a container; pour beets and pickling juice over them.
4. Refrigerate at least 24 hours before serving.
5. NOTE: I tie the pickling spices in a piece of cheesecloth. Otherwise, the spices stick to the eggs and beets. Just keep the ball of spices in with the eggs and beets -- do not discard it.

These are so tasty and very addictive. I can't walk past the frige without stopping by and scooping out a beet or an egg. Thanks for sharing this recipe Bobbie. I will be making these quite often ;)

*fantastic* pickled eggs! I threw in some fresh garlic clove halves also, I like the idea of less vinegar, that is why I chose this recipe to make, the combination of ingredients and amounts blend perectly, thanks so much for sharing this great review Bobbie!...Kitten:)
