Follow The Directions

01

Step

2 mins

In a saucepan, combine the pickle brine, white vinegar, and crushed garlic. (2 minutes)

02

Step

5 mins

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add kosher salt, if desired, tasting to adjust seasoning. (5 minutes)

03

Step

10 mins

Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the brine to cool slightly for about 10-15 minutes. This prevents the hot liquid from toughening the eggs.

04

Step

2 mins

Place the peeled hard-boiled eggs in a clean, 1-quart jar or container with a tight-fitting lid.

05

Step

48 hrs

Pour the cooled vinegar mixture over the eggs, ensuring they are fully submerged. If necessary, add a little extra vinegar or water to cover.

06

Step

Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 2 days, shaking the jar occasionally to ensure even flavor distribution. For a more intense flavor, let them pickle for up to a week.

07

Step

Serve chilled and enjoy!

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a sliced jalapeño to the brine.
Feel free to experiment with different types of pickle brine, such as dill, spicy, or sweet, to customize the flavor.
These pickled eggs are best consumed within 2 weeks for optimal quality and flavor.
