"I have enjoyed many the pickled egg but this is the one that best be in my fridge come holiday time! This is a very old recipe and one that is the favourite at our house. Best made three or four days before you intend to serve them. Easy,cook and peel the number of eggs you plan to make, place in jar ( I like to use pretty pickle jars) prepare enough brine to cover. Like I said - easy!"

If some members of the family like them spiced up you may add slices of sweet white onion or a few slices of jalapeno pepper - or both! NOTE: I love pickled eggs, when making for just me I have been adding an extra half cup of sugar which allows them to stay as when first made.
