I am a big fan of pickled eggs, so I thought I'd show you some of the favorites around my place...
These are a version of my pickled sausage flavored eggs. To make those subtract everything but vinegar/salt/and the Sriracha...
These are another favorite in my house hold. They go well with a cold Boulevard beer or some Maker's Mark...
The basic ingredients...
The Iodized Salt I use to make salt water to boil the eggs in...
I boiled 30 eggs for around 25 minutes in salt water.
I mixed 3 cups of white vinegar with 3 cups of filtered water with 1/2 cup of sugar and 4 teaspoons of crushed red peppers.
I stirred this mixture until it was a rolling boil and the sugar had dissolved, then I removed it from the heat to cool a little bit...
Once the eggs where done boiling I submerged them into an ice bath until the water was ice cold...
As the ice cooled I mixed the remaining ingredients into a bowl and dump them into the bottom...
A lot of Sriracha Chili Sauce...
3 teaspoons of Cracked Black Pepper...
1 teaspoon of Smoked Paprika...
1/2 teaspoon of Pickling Salt...
Here are a shot of 12 eggs preparing for another bath in Sriracha Chili Sauce (That's dinner sitting in it's rub while I finish the eggs in the background there)...
Here's the eggs covered in more Sriracha Chili Sauce just before I poured the hot brine into the jar with the eggs. (I used about 3/4 of a bottle once I was done)...
Here is a shot of the finished product. 12 spicy eggs floating a delicious brine. I will give these at least 2 weeks to soak up all that delicious brine before I even consider eating them. I'll likely wait at least a month though...
(And a money shot for all of the steak lovers)...
I hope that all of you enjoyed seeing them as much as I'm gonna going to enjoy eating them...
