Color is a natural attention-grabber, and these vibrant fuchsia-colored red-beet eggs really stand out.\u00a0Beet-pickled eggs are said to be a variation of German-style pickled eggs<\/a> created by the Pennsylvania Dutch. Adding red beets to the pickling liquid gives the eggs a pinkish-purple hue and a sweet-and-sour taste that’s similar to bread and butter pickles.<\/p>\n This pickled eggs and beets recipe makes 12 servings, but you can easily double the recipe to serve a crowd for picnics or family gatherings like Easter. The pickles last for several months in the refrigerator, and there are plenty of ways to use them (aside from just eating them on their own!).<\/p>\n Drain the canned beets, reserving 1 cup of the juice. You can discard the remaining juice, or save it for another use. Place the beets and eggs in a 2-quart glass jar.<\/p>\n In a small saucepan, bring the sugar, water, vinegar and reserved beet juice to a boil. Pour it over the beets and eggs, and let cool.<\/p>\n Cover the jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.<\/p>\n Beet-pickled eggs last up to four months in the refrigerator, but we recommend enjoying them within two weeks for best quality. Wondering why pickled eggs are good for longer than hard-boiled egg<\/a>s (which are only good for three to four days)? You can learn more in our guide to pickling<\/a>, but it comes down to the vinegar. The high-acid environment slows bacteria growth, extending the eggs’ shelf life.<\/p>\n You may remember your grandmother (or your favorite dive bar) keeping pickled eggs on the counter, but please don’t do this yourself! The National Center for Home Foods Preservation<\/a> cautions that temperatures above 40\u00b0F can encourage bacteria growth (including botulism). Make sure all the eggs are covered in brine, and store the well-sealed jar in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n You can use any type of beets to make pickled eggs. Red beets give the eggs their signature pink hue, while golden beets contribute a yellow shade. Chiogga beets (the ones with pink and white swirls) provide the least color, contributing a pale pink tinge.<\/p>\n The vinegar in the pickling liquid will toughen the egg’s texture, making pickled eggs more rubbery over time. To avoid rubbery eggs, plan to eat the pickles within two weeks. Overcooked hard-boiled eggs will become rubbery more quickly, so cook the eggs just long enough to set the yolks.<\/p>\n There are several ways to boil eggs<\/a>, starting with the classic stovetop option. You can also make hard-boiled eggs in the oven<\/a>, slow-cooker hard-boiled eggs<\/a>, air-fryer hard-boiled eggs<\/a>, or Instant Pot hard-boiled eggs<\/a>.<\/p>\n Pickled eggs are a great party appetizer. Serve them with toothpicks or alongside a variety of toasts and crackers. You can also use them in your favorite egg salad recipes<\/a>, or make colorful deviled eggs<\/a> for Easter or any other occasion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Red beets act as a natural dye for these pickled eggs and beets.
