Eggstreamly Yummy

I am not an egg fan. I do not like eggs any way except hard boiled. Not in an omelet, not over easy, not poached, not fried. But I love them pickled. I have made all sorts of pickled eggs. The traditional beet eggs,  Japanese Tea eggs,  Spicy Jalapeno pickled eggs. And today...curried pickled eggs.

Curried pickled eggs
  • 1 cup cider vinegar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 onion, sliced
  • 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tbs Thief in a Jar massala (you can get this at Auntie Arwen's Spices http://www.auntiearwenspices.com/)***
  • 1/2 Tbsp yellow curry powder
  • 6 hard cooked eggs, peeled                            
This is a great recipe for a different spin on  the classic pickled egg.  Peel the eggs and place them in the bottom of a clean glass jar, quart sized. In a saucepan, add the vinegar, water , the onion , sugar, and spices. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, until the sugar has dissolved and the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes.Pour the vinegar onion mixture over the eggs in the jar, covering the eggs completely. Let cool and place in refrigerator.  Ready to eat after 24 hours, but best after 2 days.

This is a shameless plug for my favorite spice shop. http://www.auntiearwenspices.com/ Great prices, wonderful spice blends and great variety.
