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.)

EASY PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• 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.

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).

• Bring a large pan of water to the boil, lower in the eggs with a slotted spoon and set a timer for 10 mins. Once the timer goes off, immediately plunge the eggs into ice cold water and leave to cool. Gently tap the eggs on the work surface and peel off the shells.
• Put the boiled eggs in a sterilised jar where they all fit, about 1 litre, and pour over the cooled pickling liquid to cover. Seal and leave in a cool, dark place for at least two weeks, or up to three months. Once opened, keep in the fridge and eat within two weeks.
