Easy Pickled Eggs


Easy Pickled Eggs

Ingredients:

  • 12 hard boiled eggs, peeled and cooled
  • 2-3 sprigs fresh dill
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 3 cups white vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoons pickling spices

Directions:

  1. Place all ingredients except eggs, garlic, and dill in a saucepan.
  2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Cool slightly.
  3. Place 3 eggs in a large jar.  Top with some of the cooked onion slices and a sprig of dill.  Repeat until the jar is full.
  4. Pour the liquid over the eggs and seal the jar.
  5. Refrigerate at least 3-4 days before eating (1 week is best).

Notes:

These will keep weeks in the fridge but never last that long.  Enjoy the onions on salads or in sandwiches.
