    This is gonna sound strange, but I work on my neighbors house and help her with certain tasks, as she is elderly, She tries to give me money, which I never accept, but, I asked her if she knew how to make pickled eggs. Well, for the past 7 years, she makes me pickled eggs, of all sorts of flavors.. My favorite ones are the maple syrup and cinnamon... Every time, I feel like I am having pancakes and eggs ... LOL... Best thing in the world.... She asked me to stop drinking the juice as she wanted it back for something... only to find out that this ole gal was making moonshine out of it some how.. Which is to die for!!! Please note, I do not drink, not on any moral issues, rather, just don't like the taste, but, having tried the pancake flavored moonshine, I might have to be careful becoming and alcoholic... LOL.. that stuff is really good.. Lastly, I am gonna blame her for this... I have put on like 10 lbs... LOL... When I ask her for the ingredients, she never tells the truth.. she says some stupid stuff like "ohhh, it has a little bit of rabbit tail in it, some bat wing, horse knees, and spider butts.".... Silly ole woman...
  • Guys, I saw this video when it first came out, because I have the notification bell, and I told you guys that I was living my Alaska dreams through you, so the next day I made it. I only made 1/2 a dozen eggs and stuck them in the fridge. I had leftover brine so I went to the store and got one of those long cucumber and pickled it. We went to visit my in-laws and ended up quarantining with them for two months. When we got back, I eat those eggs and pickle with. my husband. Both of us first time for the eggs. it was delicious!! But I could not remember where I got the recipe from or where did I put it. tonight I was on YOUTUBE and there was Eric holding up that jar of egg, and it all clicked. Wrote it down and tape it with my other favorite recipes inside my kitchen closet door. Thanks again guys.

    I am just glad that a video on pickled eggs has over a million views!

    This is the most wholesome comment section in what feels like all of Youtube.
  • My husband is now pickling eggs like there’s no tomorrow!! Love your videos 🌺❤️

    Pickled eggs take egg salad and tuna salad sandwiches to a whole other level. You can do a sweet or a dill version.
  • @cait3196
    if yall every want to change up your eggs, look into chinese lu dan (eggs braised in soy sauce) or japanese shoyu tomago (soy sauce egg). its a nice salty treat! they go great over rice, noodles, or a savery soup!

  • I just pickled 72 large eggs just the way you did yours. Thanks for the helpful video. This is what YT is supposed to be. Thanks again from New Mexico:)
  • @1307scooter
    They really are made for each other. What a great couple!

    Years ago we use to have a roommate who loved pickled eggs and beer.Unfortunately we had to let him go, eggs and beer...an explosive combination!!
  • When I was little pickled eggs was the first thing I learned to cook. I was 4 years old. We'd cook and peel them, we made a very salty brine cause these were sold to the local bars and I'd put them in my little red wagon and tote them to town. We didn't call it off grid back then. It was just our farm. No indoor plumbing. No heat except the coal stove in the parlour and wood stove in the kitchen. I'd wake up in the morning with ice in the wash basin and pitcher. We had an outhouse out back. But thank goodness for chamber pots in the winter! The snow would be so high sometimes the path to the outhouse was like a tunnel. Since this was northern Maine the climate and everything you have brings back memories of my childhood. So I'm very much enjoying your videos. Wish I was young again so I could still live like that. Sitting around the Franklin stove in the winter braiding rugs out of strips of old clothes. So colorful. Chatting and telling stories.

    It's great when you've had a few in the pub and you get a picked egg and packet of crisps, put the egg in with the crisps and smash them all together. You get the nice pickled egg pieces but also the taste and crunchy texture of something like prawn cocktail, cheese & onion, salt and vinegar ect
  • I can't be the only one who learned about pickled eggs from Moe's Tavern on The Simpsons.
  • @hexadecebal
    If you can, try pickled cauliflower and red bell peppers (in the same jar). It's an Eastern European traditional garnish for meats. Highly recommend.

    Funny I am watching this and I realized we’re neighbors :) I am in Wasilla. We have tons of fresh goat milk if you ever want to keep experimenting :)

    I love pickled eggs. I first tried them 57 years ago when my mom made some. I just made 2 dozen a couple of weeks ago. I use vinegar, onions, pickling spice, black peppercorns, assorted peppercorns. The pickling spice has cinnamon, coriander,mustard seed, allspice, bay leaves, ginger, dill seed, chilies, black pepper, mace, cardamon in it.
  • @robertkajor3774
    Great video. Tip:You could save on gas by starting eggs in cold water let them boil for 1 minute turn heat off,cover and just let them sit for 15min. Also hot water You drain can be used for water bath(it is already hot) just drain to next pot.

    Been making hard boiled eggs for Deviled eggs and pickling for decades and peeling was always a hassle (tried every method known to man) but recently I bought one of those new fangled Instant Pots and tried pressure cooking them.... Wow, what a difference, not having to store eggs for weeks before boiling them so they peel easier, taste great, good consistency. Five (5) minutes of pressure cook, let sit at pressure for five minutes then put them in cold water to cool them. Easiest peeling eggs ever!
