Spicy Pickled Eggs
- 8 eggs
- 2 cups white vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pickling spices
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 5 cloves
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 3 habanero peppers, cut into rings
- 3 green jalapeno peppers, cut into rings
- 1/2 red pepper, cut into strips
- 3 rings white onions
- Hard boil 8 eggs. The best method I've found is to place them in a pan of cool water and then place them on the stove. Turn the stove on high. Add a few pinches of salt to the water. When the water reaches a boil, cover the pan, and remove from the heat for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes pour out the hot water and replace with very cold water and some ice cubes. Carefully crack and peel the eggs and set them aside for now.
- Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove broth from heat and scoop some of the peppers/onions into a Quart sized Mason Jar. Add 3 eggs.
- Continue to add the peppers/onions/spices and eggs.
- Pour the remaining broth into the Mason Jar to within a quarter inch of the top. If you are short on broth, just top off with white vinegar.
- Hand tighten a lid and ring on the Mason Jar, let it cool, then place it in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks.
