LANCE'S BALSAMIC PICKLED EGGS



Lance's Balsamic Pickled Eggs image

A great (but secret) recipe for pickled eggs based upon the tradition of bluenose recipes for pickled ears from frost-bitten travelers who, due to frostbite, have lost their ears and donated them to a local Alaskan bar/pub in the area as a gag, but still available to this day (03/04/2009) as an edible bar treat to those in the know. Don't worry, these are just pickled eggs with some East Tennessee (Cocke County) tradition added. Note: These can provide for a very foul smell from the consumer, so, provider beware!!!

12 hard boiled eggs, shells removed
1 medium sweet onion, sliced
1 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup water
1 or 2 tbsp white sugar (depending on your desired sweetness level)
4 cloves garlic, crushed

Tips and Conclusion

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best results.
  • Prick the eggshells with a needle or toothpick before placing them in the pickling liquid. This will help to prevent the eggs from cracking.
  • Bring the pickling liquid to a boil before pouring it over the eggs. This will help to sterilize the liquid and prevent the eggs from spoiling.
  • Cover the eggs completely with the pickling liquid and store them in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks before eating.
  • The longer the eggs are pickled, the more flavorful they will be.
  • Pickled eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.
  • Serve pickled eggs as an appetizer, snack, or side dish.
