Author Notes: Pickled eggs, while a favorite bar snack n this country and others, also make a great way to use up leftover Easter Eggs. You can really use any color peppercorns, but using white gives the eggs a better appearance. The small amount of turmeric give the eggs a wonderful golden color.
Ingredients: 12 hard boiled eggs, peeled
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon white peppercorns, crushed
1/2 teaspoons crushed allspice
1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoons celery seeds
2 shallots, thinly sliced
Instructions: Makes 1 Dozen Pickeled Eggs

Take a fork and gently pierce each egg through the white to the yolk about 6 times, but leaving the whole egg intact. Pack the eggs into a clean 1 quart jar.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a non-reactive saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes. Let liquid cool for about 10-15 minutes.

Pour liquid over eggs in jar, tightly cap jar and refrigerate. It will take about a week for the eggs to absorb the flavorings and they will keep, refrigerated, for several weeks.
