Our first attempt of red beet pickled eggs did not turn out too bad, here is the recipe we combined out of 3 researched variants.
For our adaptation you will need ( always organic );
2 16 oz. glasses of cubed, pickled red beets
( or not pickled beets in a can / better in glass - sliced/diced )
12 hard-boiled peeled eggs ( from happy free roaming chickens )
1 cup water
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar that is milder in flavor
( with fresh beets that still need to be cooked, use 1 cup of white vinegar )
1/2 cup cane sugar
1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
( optional )
1 sweet onion
( sliced into half rings )
1 pinch of ground black pepper
2 bay leaves
12 whole cloves
5 juniper berries
INSTRUCTIONS
Place eggs in pot and cover with cold, filtered water and bring to a boil
Remove from heat, cover with lid and let eggs sit in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes, then remove from hot water, cool, and peel ( two of our eggs we used had a very thin shell, a result of a a diet low in calcium )
Place beets with juice and eggs in a 32 oz mason jar or glass container with lid
( cook raw beets in spice liquid / bring to boil / simmer for 10 minutes )
Bring the water and spice to a boil in a pot
Lower temperature and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring to dissolve and blend the sugar and salt completely
Pour the mixture over the beets and eggs
Important, allow to cool uncovered
Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 48 hours before enjoying
Storage: In refrigerator for 2 - 3 weeks
Bon Appétit!
