Steps:

• 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.

SPICY PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Hard boil 8 eggs. The best method I've found is to place them in a pan of cool water and then place them on the stove. Turn the stove on high. Add a few pinches of salt to the water. When the water reaches a boil, cover the pan, and remove from the heat for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes pour out the hot water and replace with very cold water and some ice cubes. Carefully crack and peel the eggs and set them aside for now.
• Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a simmer for 15 minutes.
• Remove broth from heat and scoop some of the peppers/onions into a Quart sized Mason Jar. Add 3 eggs.
• Continue to add the peppers/onions/spices and eggs.
• Pour the remaining broth into the Mason Jar to within a quarter inch of the top. If you are short on broth, just top off with white vinegar.
• Hand tighten a lid and ring on the Mason Jar, let it cool, then place it in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks.
