Jalapeño Pickled Egg Recipe:

Ingredients:

20 Hard Boiled Eggs, peeled
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup water
½ Tablespoon kosher salt
2 garlic cloves
½ Fresh jalapeños
½ Red Onion
1 Tablespoon Peppercorns
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 bay leaves

Equipment Needed

Egg Cooker or medium sauce pan (we always use the egg cooker to steam eggs to make it easier)
2 Wide mouth Mason Jars, sterilized
2 Airtight Mason Jar lids, sterilized
Small saucepan
Egg Steamer, optional
Bubble popper or a chopstick, sterilized

How to make Jalapeño Pickled Eggs

Add water, vinegar and salt to a small saucepan and heat to boiling. Stir until salt is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Thinly slice the red onion and the jalapeños.

Add 2-3 boiled eggs to each mason jar, top with a few slices of onion and a couple slices of jalapeños. Continue adding layers of eggs, onion and jalapeños until both of the mason jars are full. Note: add more or less jalapenos and onion according to your desired spice levels

Filled the mason jars with eggs and spices

Equally divide and add the garlic, peppercorns, mustard seeds, coriander seeds and red pepper flakes on top of the eggs in each jar.

Carefully pour in the salt water vinegar mixture until both jars are filled. Use a chopstick or a bubble popper to remove any bubbles or air from around the eggs. Top with more of the salt water vinegar mixture making sure all the eggs are covered in liquid.

Allow to cool completely, then cover your Jalapeño pickled eggs with an airtight lid and store in refrigerator. Wait for at least a week for the flavors to marry before serving.

So go forth and conquer your pickled egg-making skills! As the famous chef Julia Child once said, “Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all.” Happy pickling and don’t be afraid to spice things up.

But don’t just take our word for it – give it a try and see for yourself! As the saying goes, “The proof is in the pudding” (or in this case, the pickled egg).

How long do pickled eggs last in the refrigerator

Pickled eggs are best consumed in the first month but will last for 2-3 months if kept in the refrigerator. Note: As per the USDA, refrigerators should maintain a temperature of 40° F or lower.

🥣 Recipe Tips

Always sterilize your jars and all equipment you use, I run mine through the dishwater
Steam the eggs instead of boiling, then drop into ice water and let cool. Place in fridge overnight before peeling. This make peeling eggs easy, even fresh farm eggs.
