Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick Pickled Beets and Eggs.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all the necessary ingredients for your delightful pickled eggs.
Step 2
Next, place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water.
Step 3
Heat the water until it reaches a rolling boil, then promptly remove the saucepan from the heat.
Step 4
Cover it and allow the eggs to steep in the hot water for 10 to 12 minutes, creating the perfect hard-boiled texture.
Step 5
Once the time has elapsed, transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold running water to cool them down, then gently peel away the shells, revealing their pristine surfaces.
Step 6
In a separate saucepan, combine the sliced beets along with their liquid, white vinegar, sugar, water, and if you desire, a hint of ground cinnamon.
Step 7
Bring this vibrant mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely, creating a beautiful brine.
Step 8
Once your brine is ready, pour it over the peeled eggs in a glass or plastic container, ensuring they are fully submerged in the colorful liquid.
Step 9
Seal the container and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for an even richer flavor.
Step 10
Enjoy the transformation as the eggs soak up the tangy sweetness, turning into a stunning dish thatβs as delicious as it is visually appealing.
