Subj : Tailgating Grub - 42 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sat Oct 05 2024 09:40:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Pickled Eggs Categories: Vegetables, Eggs, Snacks Yield: 6 servings 15 oz Can small whole or sliced - beets; not pickled 1 c Distilled white vinegar 1/3 c Granulated sugar 1 tb Kosher salt; more for - serving 6 lg Hard-boiled eggs; peeled 1 sm Shallot; thin sliced 3 lg Dill sprigs; more for - serving (opt) 1 ts Whole black peppercorns' - plus ground pepper for - serving 1/4 ts Whole cloves (opt) Flaky salt; for serving Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large measuring cup or bowl. Drain beets; if needed, add enough water so the beet liquid reaches 1 cup (or pour off and discard any excess to reach this volume). Transfer the beet liquid to a small pot and stir in the vinegar, sugar and salt. Bring to a boil, uncovered, over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until sugar and salt are dissolved, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and cool in the pot for 30 minutes. In a large, wide-mouth glass canning jar (at least 36 ounces), or similarly sized lidded glass vessel, layer peeled eggs with the beets, along with any combination shallot, dill, peppercorns and cloves, if using, alternating all of the ingredients. Once cooled, pour the pickling liquid on top and cover tightly with the lid. Pickle in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours and up to 1 week, then remove eggs and beets from the brine and store in the fridge for up to 1 week following the initial brine. (The color and flavor will deepen the longer the eggs pickle. For more even color, give the eggs a swirl once or twice during the first day of pickling.) To serve, halve and sprinkle with more dill, salt and pepper, if desired. By: Melissa Knific RECIPE FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives Yield: 6 eggs MMMMM ....
