PICKLED EGGS - Recipe #2

[Hotspotter]

Here's my best crack, though I can't vouch for it. Being 1/2 Czech, this one came from the St. Wenceslas Cookbook (that's right, the Catholic church in New Prague). I did some up this weekend, but they're not done pickling. I think it takes a week.

Pickled Eggs

2dozen eggs

1 large onion, sliced

4 tsp. salt

2 T. sugar

1 T. mixed pickling spices

¼ tsp. pepper

½ cup water

2 cups white vinegar

Put boiled eggs in jar; add onion. Boil other ingredients together and pour over eggs.

note - I had to do two batches of brine to cover up 2 dozen. Also, I put the pickling spices in a cloth, and tied with string, rather than letting the pickling spice "swim around."

I've tried one, and it's pretty good. The brine is a bit sweet, so you might want to cut down on the sugar.
