Ingredients
- 12 pieces large eggs
- 4 cups white vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon allspice berries
- 1 teaspoon dried chili flakes
- 2 pieces bay leaves
- 2 pieces garlic cloves
Directions
Step 1
Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let simmer for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the eggs from the saucepan and transfer them to a bowl of ice water. Allow them to cool completely, about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Once cooled, gently peel the shell off each egg and set them aside.
Step 4
In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, sugar, salt, black peppercorns, mustard seeds, allspice berries, dried chili flakes, bay leaves, and garlic cloves. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and salt.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and simmer the pickling liquid for another 5 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse their flavor.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pickling liquid cool to room temperature.
Step 7
Place the peeled eggs into a clean glass jar or jars, leaving some space at the top.
Step 8
Pour the cooled pickling liquid, including the spices and aromatics, over the eggs until they are completely submerged.
Step 9
Seal the jar tightly with a lid and refrigerate. Allow the eggs to pickle for at least 1 week before consuming for the best flavor, but they can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 month.
Step 10
Serve chilled as a snack or with your favorite pub-style meal!
