How to make your own pickled eggs
Making pickled eggs is never a complicated task to finish. All you’ve got to do is boil and peel the eggs, then cook the liquid mixture of beets, vinegar, sugar, cinnamon and water. After letting both the eggs and the mixture cool slightly, place both of them in a jar and seal.
Let the eggs absorb the liquid for 4-6 hours before transferring the jar to the fridge. This allows the eggs to have a brilliant pink color and an exquisite flavor.
Is it needed to keep pickled eggs in the fridge?
If you can’t consume the whole jar of eggs at one sitting, refrigerating it is a good move. The eggs can be preserved in a fridge for up to 3 weeks.
How is the taste of pickled eggs?
It’s taste is a blend of tanginess from vinegar and sweetness from the beet and sugar that my family, especially the kids, enjoy very much.
