  • Refrigerate.
  • Wait at least 2-3 days and enjoy! The longer they pickle, the more potent they will be.

Notes

  • Pickled Eggs with Beets - Follow the pickled egg recipe and top the eggs with beet juice instead of water. It makes the eggs a pick/purple color.Use Apple Cider Vinegar
  • Change up the flavor some - Use Apple Cider Vinegar instead of White Vinegar Spicy Pickled Eggs
  • Heat things up - Slice up a jalapeno or other hot pepper and pickle it with your eggs for spicy pickled eggs.
  • Dill Pickled Eggs -  Add a couple teaspoons of pickling spice, some fresh dill and sliced garlic to your eggs for a dill pickle taste.
