every once a while eggs will go on sell around here for very cheap. when they do its nice to snatch some up and make a few bottles of pickled eggs.
to do you will need a few things, a water bath steamer, bottles, boiled eggs, and pickling brine. your pickling brine or juice can consist of any recipe you like but i like mine kind of sweet and spicy
1 cup sugar
4 cups vinegar
3 cups water
1/2 cup spice mix
spice mix
cinnamon sticks
ground nutmeg
mustard seeds
ground turmeric
coriander seeds
whole cloves
whole peppercorns
salt
I keep a jar of this premixed always on hand
some other optional flavorings to add to the bottle:
onion
jalapeno
ginger
garlic

boil your eggs and peel them. sterilize the jars, lids, and rings. mix the pickling brine together in a pan and simmer for five minutes then turn off. alternate layering the optional ingredients and eggs till you have twelve eggs. don't pack them in to tight use more or less eggs for different size bottles. then fill jar most of the way up with juice. wipe off the rim of the jar put on lid and loosely attach ring process for about ten minutes at boiling then remove and cool. you can now open one jar and enjoy but there better the longer they set.
