Hi All,

I recently got into home made pickles again, did a batch
of cauliflower and of course eggs.  I love slicing a pickled
egg on toast for breakfast, with a few slices of pickled onion.

I don't have  a recipe but I've been using something close to
this with great results.  (size is 1 pickle jar).

5 hardboiled eggs peeled.
1 medium onion sliced in big chunks
1 small carrot sliced.
handful of peeled garlic.  Slice into the cloves
3 hot peppers sliced.  with seeds.  (You choice on pepper)
Handful of rainbow peppercorns
1 bay leaf (to be fancy)
1 cup of water
1 cup of white vin 
1/4 cup sugar (You can increase this if you want it does not
make the pickles sweet)
Salt.

Bring to a simmer for 5 mins or so, let cool chuck everything else
in the jar poor over liqued.  If you need to top it up a bit, I always use
AC Vin just for that slight flavour.

The hard part is waiting.  Best after 2 weeks, however they are darn
tasty after 1.
