How To Make perfect pickled eggs

  • 1
    Put peeled, cooled eggs in a sterilized quart glass jar,set aside.
  • 2
    Boil all ingredients for 5 minutes , until onions are translucent.Let cool for a few minutes, then pour over your eggs.Secure lid and chill, will last a month, but if you're like me they'll be gone before that. Eggs usually take a few days to really get pickled all the way through, but are good the next day.

    I use the beet juice from a regular can of sliced beets. I hate beets, but really, you will not taste, a hint of beet. But boy, does it give a pretty color, and flavor.
