Prep Time

15 Minutes

Cook Time

20 Minutes

Servings

24

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups sugar

2 cups vinegar (I use cider vinegar)

1 cup water

5-6 tablespoons pickling spices with bay leaves (see note)

3/4 teaspoon salt

2 (15 ounce) cans beets, including juice

2 dozen hard-boiled eggs, peeled

How To Make This Recipe

Step
1
Combine the first 6 ingredients in large saucepan.
Step
2
Bring to a boil to dissolve sugar.
Step
3
Place peeled eggs in a large container and pour beets and pickling juice over them.
Step
4
Refrigerate at least 24 hours before serving -- the longer the beets and eggs "pickle" the better they will be.
Step
5
NOTE: I tie the pickling spices in a piece of cheesecloth. Otherwise, the spices stick to the eggs and beets. Just keep the ball of spices in with the eggs and beets, do not discard it.
Step
6
NOTE 2: I like to use an old gallon pickle jar that I've kept just for these eggs -- they do best in a container that is on the "deeper" side rather than a shallow dish.
