Pickled Eggs

[JackSchaffer]

There might be something to that.  My grandmother lived to 99.  I think it might be worth resurrecting an old favorite!

i have seen those eggs and sausages in the local establishments around the state, but i thought they were only there to talk about, never did notice anyone eating them.
my uncle used to sit and eat a whole jar of pickeled pigs feet with his family,,,,,,,, until that one day and i don't think any of them have touched them since :D

My grandmother used to pickle watermelon rinds.  She said she started doing it during the depression, and just kept on going.  By the time I came around, I think she and I were the only 2 that would eat them.  Can't say I blame anyone else for not trying them!

RECIPE?????? ;D ;D   and--pickled eggs and pickled beets---yeeeee hah!!!!!

[ohsoloco]

My dad just made some pickled eggs with beets that we grew and canned this year.  They're so much better than using store bought beets    You can even see the difference in the color, those eggs are nice and PURPLE  ;D

My hunting/sawmill buddy makes pickled beet eggs and we keep asking the questions(s).  How long can you store them in the refrigerator?  How about out of the refrigerator?  I thought that pickling was a preservative.

Pickled eggs I seen were always in a 1 gallon jar of brime sitting on the shelf. I think once opened they had to be used up and not sitting there for months on end.

In the old times they used water glass method to store eggs in a crock. The eggs where not cooked. No fridges back then and hens usually don't lay much in cold winter. My grandmother made a lot back then, not in my day though.

As long as it takes for them to go bad.....

      (but keep an eye on vital signs after someone else eats them....)

Staggering,slurred speech,severe vomiting?  ;)

[beenthere]

Nahhh!
More like da next level...
No pulse, turning blue, stiff, etc. 

If 'ees like any of those, don't eat da eggs.

[ohsoloco]

We always keep our pickled eggs in the fridge, or on the back porch this time of year if there's no room in the fridge.  I don't recall pickled eggs ever lasting long enough to go bad  ;D 

I do recall years ago finding some pickled eggs in the fridge at the club my brothers and friends are members of, and they were pretty old....a little on the grey side  :-\  They still went nicely with malt beverage  :D

[SwampDonkey]

That could have been simply from over cooking the eggs to. ;)

[ohsoloco]

I don't think so, the beets didn't look real purple either  :  Actually, after we finished that first batch a new batch was made.  Then (I guess to save money) the guy that made them would just hard boil more eggs and drop them in the same brine, and the beets quickly lost their punch...so when a batch was getting low we'd just finish them off and dump the juice and beets out  ;D

New here, so not sure how you like bringing back old threads..

Pickled Eggs are awesome.

I put peeled eggs in a pickle jar with the pickle juice, add some Garlic and some pepper flakes.
Let them sit for a day or two..

Any other recepies out there?

[POSTON WIDEHEAD]

I eat pickled peaches about twice a week.
But when I make my pickled eggs, I like to poke a few holes in them with a tooth pick to let the juice get into the egg real good. Emmmmmm!

That is never a problem, and actually considered a good thing to see new members reading older topics and making them new again.

Pickled peaches?

What's that all about? Pickled in vinegar?

[Texas Ranger]

Pickled eggs and pigs feet, with cheese and crackers, and a beer.  Snack for Saturday after the ball game.

You can just throw some eggs in a jar of pickles and go from there, or there are lots of recepies, that greaty imporove the flavor.
One thing that does happen is WOW do they create alot of GAS...

Nice to read about some past members too.  We can get this old thread up on top again.
Poston,not into pickled eggs,but if I was a making,I would be poking some holes in them too. Good idea.

[SwampDonkey]

Well, I stayed at a place when I was young during harvest time, when I was 5 or 6. The lady of the house raised chickens and sold eggs. The top shelf of the cupboard must had at least 10, maybe more, 1 gallon jars of pickled eggs. That's the only time in my entire life I ever remember eating one. We never had any at home. When I was 7, it was time to work in the harvest season picking taters. Had a short youth. :D

You don't need to poke holes in the eggs to get the purple all the way to the yellow yokes.  Heat the pickling juice and simmer, peel the eggs while they are still warm.  Put the eggs in a jar and pour the warmed juice on top.  Ta Dah!
