Bourbon Basalmic Pickled Eggs Food

BALSAMIC PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Place eggs 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, cool, and peel.
• Place the onion, balsamic, water, sugar, and garlic in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then remove from stovetop, and allow to cool to room temperature. Place the eggs in a glass jar, and the vinegar over top. Cover, and refrigerate for 4 to 5 days before serving; the longer the better!

PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Bring the vinegar, 3/4 cup water, 3 tablespoons salt, the coriander seeds, mustard seeds, sugar, onions and chiles to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the salt and sugar. Reduce the heat, cover and let the brine simmer for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pierce each egg all the way through about 6 times with a cake tester or toothpick. Put 2 eggs in each of 3 glass pint jars with lids, and tuck the celery and dill in around them. Ladle in enough brine to cover the eggs, add 2 more eggs to each jar and ladle in more brine to cover, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Close the jars, let cool to room temperature and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.
• To serve, halve or quarter the eggs, and spoon some pickling liquid and vegetables over the top. (The eggs will keep, covered by liquid and refrigerated, for up to 5 days.)

BOURBON BASALMIC PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• 1. Remove eggs from refrigerator and bring to room temperature.
• 2. Boil together the bourbon, basalmic vinegar, and salt until reduced by about 1/4. Taste to adjust salt level. Should be a little salty, like potato chip salty, to the taste, because the eggs will take some of that salt in the pickling process. Refrigerate to cool completely.
• 3. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.
• 4. Use tongs to place eggs in a single layer in the boiling water, then set a timer for 6 minutes and 45 seconds.
• 5. When the timer is up, remove eggs to a cold water bath, and repeat step 4 until all eggs are boiled.
• 6. Using a large spoon, carefully peel the eggs while they're still warm inside. They will be very fragile because the yolk is still quite soft at this point.
• 7. Gently place the peeled eggs in a sterilized container, then pour over the bourbon basalmic brine. Depending upon your container, and how many eggs don't make it due to breakage, you may need to make more brine, or you may have leftover brine. I use a flat lock-tite container. You simply want to make sure the eggs are completely immersed in the brine.
• 8. Refrigerate for two days, and enjoy.

LANCE'S BALSAMIC PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the eggs into a large pot cover with water by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil over high heat; remove from the heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Pour out the hot water and cool completely under cold running water; peel and place in a glass jar large enough to hold them.
• Combine the onions, balsamic vinegar, water, sugar, garlic, peppercorns, beet juice, and cayenne chiles in a deep saucepan over high heat; bring to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Pour into the glass jar with the eggs. Seal the jar with the lid. Refrigerate 4 to 5 days before serving.

SUPER EASY PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Hard-boil the eggs (takes about 15 minutes) then drain and re-fill the pot with cold water.
• While the eggs are cooling, place remaining ingredients in a small sauce pan on high heat. Heat to low boil, then simmer on low heat for 3 minutes.
• While the pickling solution is simmering, peel the eggs and place in a 1 quart mason jar. Don't worry if an egg sticks above the jar rim slightly - they squish down.
• Pour the pickling solution into the jar. Since the eggs will float up to the top, make sure the jar is filled up to the rim with pickling solution to minimize air up there. If you don't have enough pickling solution, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar and 1 tablespoon of sugar until it is up to the rim.
• Set on counter to cool to room temperature, then label with the date and place in the refrigerator.
• Wait 2 weeks for the eggs to pickle thoroughly before eating. Keep them in the fridge and try to eat them within 2 months (after that they are still edible, but rubbery in texture).
