Ingredients

  • 10 hard-boiled eggs peeled
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • 1 tbsp pickling spice
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 serrano chilis optional

Instructions

  • In a small pot over MEDIUM heat, combine the water, vinegar, sugar, pickling spice, and salt. Bring to a boil, then turn down and stir.
  • Once the sugar has dissolved, add the garlic and bay leaves and remove from the heat.
  • Gently fill a large jar with the eggs.
  • Slide in the serrano chilis and pour in the pickling water.

Notes

  • The longer the eggs are stored in the brine, the stronger they will taste. This is why most people let them marinate for at least a week before eating.
