How To Make Brine Pickled Eggs Food

PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Place peeled, hard-boiled eggs into a quart wide mouth mason jar (or use a half recipe for pint jars).
• Place liquids (water/vinegar, etc) into a small saucepan and add sugar and salt. Gently heat until dissolved, then remove from heat.
• Add spices and sliced veggies (onions/garlic/etc) directly into the jars.
• Pour the hot brine over the eggs and spices, leaving as little headspace as possible (around 1/4 inch).
• Seal jars with lids and allow them to cool slightly before storing them in the refrigerator.
• Allow the eggs to pickle for at least 24 hours before eating, preferably around 1-2 weeks for better flavors.
• Pickled eggs should last 3-4 months in the refrigerator.

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.)

Steps:

• Place eggs in a medium 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.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, mix together the vinegar, water and pickling spice. Bring to a boil and mix in the garlic and bay leaf. Remove from heat.
• Transfer the eggs to sterile containers. Fill the containers with the hot vinegar mixture, seal and refrigerate 8 to 10 days before serving.

PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Put the vinegar, sugar, bay, spices, ½ tbsp salt and 150ml water in a small pan and heat for a few mins until the sugar dissolves. See tip below about adding other flavours and spices. Leave to cool completely while you boil the eggs.
• 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.
