Ingredients

8-12 eggs
2 tbsps salt
2 tbsps sugar
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tbsp chilli flakes
SIDS LOW SUGAR RASPBERRY VINEGAR
Baking soda
Preserving jar with lid, 1 litre

Directions

First, you must let your eggs sit and leave in an egg carton at room temperature for four weeks.
Check the ‘pack date’ and ‘sell by date’ of the eggs when you buy them. Ideally, eggs can last for 3 – 5 weeks at room temperature, but it depends on those two mentioned dates.
It is best to base it on the ‘pack date,’ meaning the date the manufacturer placed those eggs in its carton.
Place the eggs in a pot with water and cook them on high heat. Bring to a boil for two minutes, then remove them from the heat. Cover the pot and let it stay there for eight minutes.
While waiting for them to boil, you can start your pickle jar.
Place the salt, sugar, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes inside the jar. You can buy minced garlic in jars from your local grocery.
Pour some SIDS LOW SUGAR RASPBERRY VINEGAR about a quarter of the jar and mix everything.
After eight minutes, you can start peeling the eggs.
Make a vinegar bath in a separate bowl. This is where you’ll place your eggs after they’re peeled.
Then get your pot, put some tap water to cool it down. You don’t have to totally cool it down but just cool enough for you to handle them.
Here’s a brilliant tip to easily peel the eggs:-
Pour a bit of baking soda, around 2 – 3 tablespoons, into the water and give it a little stir. Crack the eggs, and you can see how easily the peel slides out.
It also helps take out the sulfuric smell from the eggs.
After you cracked an egg, place it in the vinegar bath.
Continue this process with all the eggs. Slowly place the peeled eggs in the jar one by one until it is full. Pour more SIDS LOW SUGAR RASPBERRY VINEGAR to fill the gaps in between. Close the lid and give it a little shake.
Shake the jar every few hours on the first day, and your eggs are pickled and ready to be served.
