Pickled Eggs | Preserving the Perfect Snack 

I never met her. I think I love her lol

@@Wickedjc2119 NOOOOOO.. She is mine.... Stay away... Those pancake flavored pickled eggs belong to me... LOL

@@drubradley8821 lol she sounds awesome

Going to have to try the Maple syrup & Cinn

@@johnnyswag2802 I failed to mention... These Maple & Cinnamon flavored pickled eggs, are exceptionally torturous... Meaning, they take a little while longer for the flavor to saturate into the hard boiled eggs.. Now, imagine, you have a gallon jar of these eggs on the counter, sealed, hidden away from direct sun light, of course... Yet, you have to walk by them several times a day, just living your life.. (Mine sit on the shelf coat room, that leads to the garage) and most items in that coat room after a day of sitting there, you kinda forget that junk is sitting there... BUT... these dang pancake & cinnamon favored hard boiled eggs, just sitting there, looking at you, every time you walk by.. Please note, the first batch, as the sat there, never bothered me, as I had never tasted them before.. but now that I have tasted them, they look at me, every time I walk by them.. taunting me, saying "NOPE...NOT READY YET!"... the next time I walk by them, of course I see them, and the eggs see me, and say again, Even though, it has only been 3 minutes okay from the last time I walked by, the eggs say, "NOPE... NOT READY YET".... It is so not fair, how long these have to sit before you can eat them to get the full saturation aspect.. Yes, you can eat them the day you made them, but you are missing out.. .The day the are ready, I wait an additional day to 3 and clean out a huge spot in the fridge, to hold the large jar.. and the day I pop the top of that jar, is like opening Christmas presents when you are like a little kid. .(maybe that is just me?) Which I typically will set up for the special event, on a Friday night opening.. I likely make this more of a bigger deal then what it really is, but, I did learn one thing that she does, she used the real eggs, the eggs the eat bugs and stuff, the natural eggs.. OMG are those eggs so good. Even just frying up on of those eggs to dip your toast into the bubble part of it, is so dang good.. Find and build a relationship with your local farmers.. in fact, you can trade working on their farm to help the get stuff down a few hours a week, and they will trade you with eggs or fresh milk if that is what you want.. In my state, there are laws that make it illegal for the farmer to sell me eggs directly, and cutting out the middle man.. I follow the law, and I give the farmer free work, a few hours a months, and it just happens that I get a few dozen eggs and milk a month.. what are the odds of that... No money was exchanged.. Both party's Often times, My sons come alone and help.. many years later, They actually took their dates to the farm. and the girls they brought with them, loved it, as they got to see and work with the horses and a few goats..

That sounds like a complete meal medley in one jar. I'm making my first jar of pickled eggs for me and my brother and I think I'm going to try something like this with the extra veggies pickled with the eggs. Thank you! PS: Do you add in the pre pickled hot sausages or regular cooked hot sausages?

Any reason for the mixed vinegar?

@@analarson2920 flavor. All apple cider would be too strong for their liking and so they use white vinegar to meet the required amount of vinegar and keep the flavor profile they are looking for.

What kind of sausage do you use and how do you prep them? As soon as I read your post I flashed back to them in the 50s and 60s but forgot all about pickled sausages.

I’m 33 and I feel the same way about living alone. I’ve got the metabolism of a migrating elephant and I also love making gigantic dinners for one!

I too did the same thing!!! 😁

@@starfiresilky Very good. Take care

@@karenandriancontainergardening likewise 😁

How did you get your jars to seal. My open kwttle jars wont seal. Hot jars, boiling brine, no sealing jars.

Thank you ❤Godbless you🎉

Homesteading video comment sections usually are pretty good. You might like Hollar Homestead, Justin Rhodes, Art and Bri, Living Traditions Homestead, Sow The Land, Roots and Refuge, Doug and Stacey, etc. All excellent homesteaders with great families, great recipes, and tons of how to raise your own veggies/animals.

@@dibutler9151 I actually lived on a farm for years, and work as a professional Japanese chef, so it's actually quite lovely when I find new videos about this stuff.

Yes, right there with Alaska Prepper

We are all looking for happiness. 👍

Reviewbrah.

Great idea!

Thanks Em, I tried that and thought it tasty. I also added some homemade sauerkraut to my egg salad sandwich.

What a beautiful comment. You should write a book! I'd love reading all about growing up like that. I bet a lot of people here would.

What’s being young have to do with living like that

Your life sounds absolutely dreamy

Please tell where and when was it ? If you don't might.

@@tentam1982 ah, around 1958. In northeastern Maine near the coast. It was a tiny backwater town then. Houlton, Maine. No route 93 at all then. It is on route 1. Not too far from caribou. Haven't been back for a while. It's a good 7 or 8 hour drive from where I am now in New Hampshire. My family has been in New England for 385 years this year. Maine was part of Massachusetts back then you know. I love history. And it's fun when you have a personal connection to the lives of those who came before us.

you aint kiddin! getting harder and harder these days!!!!

Hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha you mean wife

@@feralprepper1597 yes, thats what he meant

I am hoping for such a partner! 😔

@@sabirahchelbi3342 I wish you all the very best!

I did the same 2 weeks ago and one jar appears to be a little milky, is that going to be bad??

fresh eggs steamed in a sieve with a lid on top, 14 minutes peel like a dream

i agree w. you.

@Warrior Son You Obviousley are uneducated If you think they are remotely the same thing... from ABQ here btw!

I mean no.. youtube is supposed to be a massive monopolizing platform designed to generate huge amounts of data and money for the corporation and board that controls it. Good content is just a side effect.

Yeah, there were a group of people from Minnesota who settled there. I knew the accent sounded familiar.

Goat cheese and goat butter. Goat cream and goats milk for baking sounds wonderful only thing that could make it better would be having a bunch of egg laying hens too. My kids love cheese and eggs and fresh bread, homemade breakfast pizza, cakes, cookies, and so much more with the possibilities are huge especially if you have a garden

@@annak804 goat caramel sauce , basically goat milk and sugar in mexico we called CAJETA is yomi 😋

Me too...off Bogard :) I really love their vids!

I’ve got a friend that lives in Wasilla! Clint Clippinger

ditto

just avoid the black one.

They are also used to pick the Pope.

I heard about from the movie “The Gentleman”

Not all heros wear capes

Brown mustard seeds & coriander

Thank you!!!

10-Q!!

* *Lisa Branton,* * What? And *WHY?* - Never water-down vinegar that's already diluted to 5% acidity. You're reducing it to 2.5% acidic and what for? Storage and shelf life's important. Imma gonna slappa you with wet spaghetti, girl.

ill give that a go

Coolsies.

Does this work on fresh laid eggs?

add a teaspoon of vinegar to the boiling water and you'll prevent any hairline cracks on eggs from exploding

@@WarAuthority Truesay wise one.

Joe S do you add sugar to brine?

This sounds like the perfect eggs and pickling juice to add to a sweet pickle potato salad! Sublime!!

Ratios please!!

Sounds like you went wild with the spices is that normal or an overkill?

@@johnjames5518 That is normal for me.

do you boil it together?

I was thinking about that as the eggs went in the pen. I think they're fine once the shells have been cooked. For shells that you're cracking raw, baking is a great option!

Wouldn't it be a bad idea to teach chickens to eat their own fresh eggs?

@@StitchThomas some chick spits and some chicks swallow...

@@binyd4 Perfect... Perhaps to perfect 🤔

My dad always said eggshells made chickens less anxious & they wouldn't peck at each as often. Something about the alkaline in the shells???????

Same lol

yep me too

Oh yes. Good old country gal here and I do this also especially when I'm to lazy to make the brine. Lol

I use the 1 gallon Jalapeño jar

😂😂 I love your honesty

I agree.. it’s a game changer for me.

Little bit of baking soda in the cold water whilst cooling. Rick Dean from Texas, very good method, so easy & don't destroy the eggs.

From one " Pot Head" to another, yessss!!! Easiest peeling eggs ever.

We have the Ninja Foodi Air Frier/Pressure Cooker combo and we make soft boiled eggs all the time. We only cook them for two minutes and quick release then into cold water. The whites are cooked and the yolk is runny. Perfection!

All eggs have an air bubble in them. If you take a small pain and poked around and of the egg compared to the pointy end. When they boil the are leaves that little hole and the eggs are perfectly round. Then once you dump the eggs in ice water, they peel so easily and have a perfect egg shape

Rick Dean from down in Texas has a good trick, puts a bit of baking soda in the cold water whilst it cools. Tried it, makes it so easy to peel.

* 1 large piece of ginger peeled and sliced thin. * a few garlic cloves sliced thin. * sliced onion * a few peppercorns * a few mustard seeds * a few caraway seeds * bay leaf * salt/pepper/sugar

I would wash my red beets well, cut off all but about 1 inch of tops and boil until fork tender. Remove beets to cool. Let water from beets settle (depends how clean the skin is) and pour into glass bowl. Don’t pour last of settled water in bowl, you can usually tell. Skin beets (easy if you do while warm) cut in chunks or slice and put in bowl. Add Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar (more water if necessary) Peel your boiled eggs and place in liquid with beets. Adding some chopped onion is optional and strength of ACV. Let sit overnight. Pickled beets and eggs.

Try the garlic mustard pickled eggs....so good

Agree, I have been doing this all my life, sliced onion, beets, eggs, with a vinegar/water solution and a few other spices, no sugar, allow the eggs to marinate a day or so, usually gone in a few days.

STIMPY

are they easy or hard to peel when u do it that way? peeling them is the part i hate the most when pickling eggs

Balsamic vinegar is an option too??? Oh my god.. I bet they would be amazing with tarragon and black garlic.

Try some food grade h2o2 to your feed crop for the chicks!

Yes! That is EXACTLY how I do my eggs!

They recycled the shells, smart, feeding them back to the chickens. Minerals

Works great! Thanks for the tip.

Only problem with feeding hens the shells is their tendency to peck the eggs they've just laid. Not good.

kj smith came here to say the same thing

Our pickled egg recipe uses beets. Only way I like them.

I bet you boil a mean instant noodle.

My mom made them in the Pickled Bologna Brine those are the best

Little T's Mom Pickled bologna??? Say what???

My brother in law loves them, I'm allergic to walnuts or I'd try them

My partner made pickle walnuts here in uk. He was over the moon when he found out my boss had 2 walnut trees but never collected the nuts she let hi have them all. I wasn't impressed with the look of them but he enjoyed them.

Whoa, what?? Pickled walnuts???

I roll them after I do the initial crack, lol. Just roll between the palms or on the table.

Making your wife peel them helps as well 😉

Fresh red beets ? Or boiled ?

Apple Knocker thank you 😁

My grandmother did that!!

@@szodoraitunde9789 I'm Appalachian, and we use about a cup full (which is about what a qt of pickled beats will render) of pickled beet juice per gal jug of eggs. I have seen folks throw the beets in as well.

@@teresaweaver1012 thanks

We always cook our eggshells just to make sure they (chickens) aren’t eating any bacteria, but it is a great way of getting that calcium back into them for shells.

Alaska bro

It was probably warmer than you think it is.

Haha us Albertans know this all too well

Well, but it is gorgeous while the sun is out.

Sounds like you’ll have to make a dozen jars! 🤣

Very kind of you to notice.

They are extremely normal and in love. So nice to watch !!!!!

Yeah, the authenticity is my favorite part of the channel. Regular people acting regular. That's really hard to do in front of a camera.
