Notes
- Eggs — Fresh eggs might give you a hard time when peeling. If you have some eggs that have been waiting in your kitchen, use them instead of using fresh ones.
- Mason jar — Make sure you have a clean mason jar. Wash with warm water and soap.
- Short on time? — You can always hard boil, peel, and store the eggs beforehand if you’re short on time. You will only be left with preparing the brine, which would drastically shorten the prep time for this old-fashioned pickled eggs recipe.
