Need some receipies for pickled eggs

I take a couple jars of picked beets and add a couple cups of apple cider vinegar and a dozen boiled eggs, put them in a large glass jar and let set for couple of days. You can add in a couple vidalia onions too! Mmmmmmmmm!
 
My dad has been making these eggs for 50 years. Always been good.

2 jars pickled beats
2 dozen eggs
About a pint of White vinegar
1 BAJ- Big ass Jar

Put your eggs and beats with juice in baj then pour the vinegar in about 1inch above eggs. So it might take more than a pint but probably not by much.

He puts his in the fridge and lets the sit at least a week. But 2-3 weeks for best flavor.

This is how my Grandmother did hers and her Mother before her. Obviously I don't think the Fridge is necessary but my dad likes his cold and tangy.
 
All the beets and vinegar recipes are spot on...WITH the exception of adding some pickling spice, a little sugar, and some hot peppers of your choice. The longer they pickle the better.
 
Any body ever used guinea eggs to pickle? Our guineas are laying a lot right now and I have some on boiling right now to see how they are.

I never knew a guinea egg that ya couldn't use just like a chicken egg. The shell is just pointy.
 
OK, just thanks! No I'm jonesin for some pickled eggs! I just put a dozen on to boil!
 
Anyone ever do this with soft or medium boiled eggs?
 
That seems risky...

How so?

FWIW I really dislike hard boiled yolks but like the flavor of pickled eggs.

I eat medium boiled all the time. How would putting them in vinegar make them risky?
 
I do too. Well, not soft boiled, but over-medium. I think the idea of the uncooked yolk sitting in a jar for weeks would create a botulism playground. I could be wrong though, but I'm not gonna try it.

Interesting point but I would assume that the vinegar would stop that.

You can even store raw eggs for a long time by just putting oil on the shell.

Some quick googling seems to show several recipes for both soft and medium. The trick is apparently in peeling without breaking the white
 
About 12 years ago I was wheel chair bound for a while. Girlfriends father raised quail and had way more eggs than he could use. So in desperate need of a hobby, I would boil and peel quail eggs all day and then pickle them Quail eggs are the perfect bite sized pickled egg. Had folks begging for more. They are a pain to peel, but once again, it was me, quail eggs and Gunsmoke on the TV all day.
 
There ain't nothing in this world worse than metformin except the deal they give you to clean you out for a colonoscopy.

Pickled eggs I can handle.

This thread seems long forgotten.

Tonight I decided to try something new. Mixed 6oz of Cholula chipotle sauce (which I love, not hot but smokey) with 1.5c white vinegar, 1c water, half a med yellow onion, a clove of garlic, and 1/2tsp of salt. Simmered the brine and poured it over 10 eggs in a qt jar. Currently resting in the outdoor fridge. I’ll let you know how it is around Christmas.
