Pickled Eggs

[GypsyG]

I asked the folks over at BYC for their best pickled eggs recipes and surprisingly did not get much of a response! My girls are producing an overabundance of eggs and I was thinking about pickling some! Do y'all have any good pickled eggs recipes? I'd love to try out several variations!

*Edit- I'm really looking for shelf stable recipes for pantry storage.

I asked for the same over there long ago and someone told me to put the eggs in another pickled produces' juices

I haven't tried this recipe yet, but it looks nice: https://www.eggs.ca/recipes/traditional-pickled-eggs

I agree with Sumi. My husband likes to put his hard boiled eggs in my pickle jar (Vlastic). Tastes pretty good!

I'm going to try this because I am craving pickled eggs... But I would really love to find some good shelf stable recipes

I got given a jar of pickled eggs years ago and I've been wanting more ever since. The lady that made them wouldn't give her recipe though. All she said was it was a very old recipe that they modified. I think the best you can do is try a few small batches with different recipes and see which one you like best? The one I posted the link to looks nice to me and that's where I'll start. If I ever get hold of eggs lol My hens are freeloading at the moment.

Ive never found a really good recipe.

If we've had the garlic and jalapeno green olives, I'll drop eggs in to pickle after they are done.

I've found I prefer the size of the silkie eggs for pickled eggs instead of large eggs. Heck I thought about getting a few serama hens just to have tiny pickling eggs.

Quail eggs pickle very well...small enough that the brine really flavors the whole egg.

Really needs to be a vingar based brine. Fremented pickle brine wouldn't work I don't think.

I was thinking the same. And I heard quail eggs are really nice, kinda creamy?

I've always liked dropping some into a jar of brine from pickled beets... tastes great and they develop the most beautiful pink color.
