Pa Dutch Pickled Eggs Red Beets Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Drain the red beets & reserve the juice. To the juice, add enough water so you're getting one cup of liquid.
• 2. Add liquid to saucepan, & add vinegar, sugar, cloves, cinnamon sticks, and some salt. Bring to a boil, stirring. Pour the sauce over the beets. Let cool just a bit.
• 3. Transfer to a large glass bowl or jar (my Meme Koletar had her special "pickled beet jar".) Refrigerate this for about 12 hours or so. When that time is up....
• 4. Add the peeled, hard-boiled eggs to the marinade & refrigerate overnight or 8-12 hours. Make sure you stir the eggs every so often so that the beet color becomes even on them. Nothing is sadder than seeing a pickled egg that only has one side of it lovely & deep purple. Then, cut the eggs in half & serve w/ the beets. Sprinkle w/ black pepper to your taste.

Steps:

• Place eggs in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to boil. Cover, remove from heat, and let eggs sit in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, and peel.
• Place beets, onion, and peeled eggs in a non-reactive glass or plastic container. Set aside.
• In a medium-size, non-reactive saucepan, combine sugar, 1 cup reserved beet juice, vinegar, salt, pepper, bay leaves, and cloves. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer 5 minutes.
• Pour hot liquid over beets and eggs. Cover, and refrigerate 48 hours before using.

Steps:

• Cook, drain, and skin beets if not using canned.
• Combine remaining ingredients, except eggs.
• Pour over beets and cook for about 5 minutes.
• Cool.
• Place eggs in a large jar and pour cooled beet mixture over.
• Place in the refrigerator.
• Let pickle at least two days before using.

Steps:

• Hard Boil Eggs.
• Slice onion thinly.
• In a sauce pan combine beets (with juice), onion sugar, water and salt.
• Add vinegar here?.
• Bring to boil and simmer 10 minutes.
• After eggs are cooled, shell them and place in a large jar.
• Cool beet mixture a bit and add to jar. (You don't want it boiling when you add it because you may crack your jar).
• Put in refrigerator for at least 24 hours. The longer the eggs are in the juice, the better they'll taste. Best taste after about 3 days.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine red beets, vinegar and sugar in a pan.
• Stir and heat just enough to dissolve the sugar.
• Add the eggs and refrigerate at least one hour (I prefer overnight).

Steps:

• Combine reserved beet liquid, sugar, vinegar, peppercorns and allspice in medium nonaluminum saucepan. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves; remove from heat. Add eggs and onion and turn to coat completely. Add beets. Cover pan and refrigerate until eggs are deep pink color, turning occasionally, about 8 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead.)
• Drain juices. Cut eggs lengthwise in half. Arrange beets and onion on plate. Top with eggs and serve.

Steps:

• Drain liquid from the beets into saucepan. Place beets, onions, and eggs into a large bowl or pitcher.
• Pour sugar and vinegar into the saucepan with the beet liquid and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, and let the mixture simmer 15 minutes.
• Pour the beet juice mixture over the beets, eggs, and onions. Seal the bowl or pitcher and refrigerate. Refrigerate for at least one to 3 days; the longer they are allowed to sit the better they will taste.
