I got curious about how people are using their instant pots for making boiled eggs. I wanted to give it a go. And I was almost out of pickled eggs anyway. So, I put one cup of water in my IP. Added a dozen eggs on top of the steam rack. I set the IP to the soup setting, high pressure for 5 minutes. Then let it drop in pressure normally, about another 5 minutes. Then into a ice bath for 10 minutes. These peeled super easy. Which is great!
I put 3 cups of cider vinegar with 1 TBS of pickling salt to boil.
In the quart mason jar I added:
2 tsp of pickling spice
2 tsp dried dill
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp dried minced onion
Only 11 eggs would fit in the jar. Oh, well. You can guess where that one went.....
Filled within 1/2" to top with the brine. Vac sealed and into the fridge for a week.

Looking good.You're doing a lot of pickling as of late.Pigs feet next?
Surprised at no beet juice...I like the earthy flavor it imparts.
 
I don't mind pigs feet. Though I doubt I'll do them. I've added beet juice in the past. Just didn't have any. It does add a nice flavor to them.
 
What are you using to vac seal your Ball jars?

Try Amish mustard pickled eggs sometime.
For 12 eggs
4 Cups water
1 Cup vinegar
1 Cup sugar
1 TBSP kosher salt
3 TBSP prepared (yellow) mustard
1 TBSP mustard seed
2 tsp turmeric (optional but adds nice color)
Bring to boil and simmer 5 minutes, allow to cool some then pour over eggs.
(I often add a few garlic cloves and some pepper flakes to the mix)
 
Looks & sounds Great, Steve!!

I use this with my vac sealer. It works great.
I've had Amish eggs before. They are also good.

I have NO idea what Pawpaws are! But I like the Jowls. Though it is a bit of work getting to what little meat is on them.
 
I need to get one of them sealers for jars.

Them eggs will be good it bet.

I saw this on a PBS show . It's a fruit from a tree . The show was " A chef's life " She made pickles out of them , but they ate them right off the tree also .

There ya go Steve , get on it pickle king ,,, LOL . I like looking at the stuff you're putting in the jars . Eggs look good , even though I never had a pickled egg .
 
Interesting. I lived in Arkansas for a few years. And never heard of these.
 
Non Insta pot owners, sous vide hard boiled eggs:
190° 20 mins , ice bath. Easy peel
 
I've never had pickled eggs, but this makes me want to make a batch!

Looks good Steve, I used to have a co-worker who brought in a huge jar of pickled double yolked eggs about twice a year. It was always a treat.

Point for sure

12 boiled eggs
1 c. Water
1/3 c. Soy sauce
1/4 c. Liquid smoke (sinful)
2 tsp. Sugar

Mix all together in jar then frig for 3-4 days shaking around every day.
Enjoy!​

Now that sounds very interesting. Can you describe the taste?
 
Smoked eggs. These are awesome in a salad plus use them to make smoked deviled eggs or smoked eggs salad. mmmmmm
A few people will turn up their nose to them just because of brown color. YEA more for me

I had myself a few of them today. They came out fantastic. I'm going to make a larger batch soon. If anything. I may put a few jalapenos in with them. Other then that. I think the recipe is very good.
