The Forgotten Truth About Pickled Eggs

[@brettleesmith1]

My Louisiana pickled egg boil recipe is as follows...1 Quart jar. About 10 boiled medium eggs... Three cups of white vinegar, no apple cider. 1 Tablespoon of Zatarains crab boil. 1 teaspoon of old bay. 1 Tablespoon of salt. 1Tablespoon of sugar. 1 Tablespoon of garlic powder. 1 Tablespoon of onion powder. Bring to a slow boil and pour over your shelled eggs in the jar all the way to the top. Tighten cap good and hide eggs for at least 3 weeks.

"Shelf stable" means having a pH of less than 4.6 to preserve food, distilled white whine vinegar (5%) has a pH of about 2.4 so should be all good and, if you have any doubt, you can very cheaply buy a pH meter or test strips. Pickled eggs are still a popular pub snack in more rural/traditional parts of England. Sometimes they'll use clear vinegar and add a slice or two of beetroot to colour them. Eggs are seasonal of course so, before factory farming, preserving them was essential. I've never seen pickled eggs refrigerated but then in Europe we don't generally refrigerate eggs generally, eggs store well for a couple of weeks as long as they are left unwashed (washing them removes the biofilm that preserves them.)

[@liberatedlady4689]

Totally agree with your overseas comments; I too had to live 16 years in Germany and they too do not have eggs in the refrigerator section of the stores. They are usually in the vicinity and on an end cap.

[@birkhatt8969]

Obviously undiluted vinegar is an essential ingredient for unrefrigerated storage. But what about salt? Is it necessary or will undiluted vinegar on its own be enough? Is salt added for preservation purposes or for flavor?

[@thomas316]

@@birkhatt8969 Don't need to salt them. People often eat them with a sprinkle of salt or pepper.

[@elettramia6380]

@@birkhatt8969 salt as well is used as a preservative which is why all canned goods like canned meat and canned vegetables contain salt. But the vinegar alone should do it. Salt is just adds more preservation

[@jonathaneutropius5873]

Oh great idea! I’ve got a bumpa crop of beets in my home garden. The beets will no doubt add a bit of sweetness as well as the lovely colour you mentioned to the white vinegar and is a lot cheaper than mixing with balsamic vinegar. That’s the beauty of using EVERYTHING that we so sorely neglect in today’s throw away society. I’ve planted a dozen grape vines, next step… make my own wine and vinegar!

[@williamwaha3193]

Fermented foods don't need to be refrigerated that is the point behind fermenting them . Alcohol is a sterilizing agent , vinegar is what alcohols turn into when they've over fermented . Vinegars used to be used to clean your surfaces in your home because there was no such thing as a detergent or soap . The whole point behind ," Let your food be your medicine and let your medicine be your food " . Fermentation is the cleaning / sterilization agent for keeping your food edible and safe for extreme amounts of time . Botulism is a bacteria and these bacteria need oxygen and sugars to thrive , they can't exist in acidic solutions .

Sugar 2 T. Pickling spices Heat all liquids, including beet juice, sugar, and spices, for about 5 minutes on stove. Layer eggs and beets in a large jar with a lid. I use a 1-gallon jar.

Bought our first chickens this year, they lay eggs like crazy, so we have a surplus. Not easy to deliver them to wider family fresh on time, so decided to pickle them. Will be nice for winter, when chicken lay less (we don't provide heating or additional light - on purpose, to let live naturally. Yeap, they free-roam too on a big garden etc.). Already for some time, we make pickled speck sausages - Czech speciality, called "drowned man" :-D . And these last over a year no problem, even when the jar was already open!!!! As far as you don't compromise the food inside of it with bacterias and have a clean jar (I use steam to clean the jars before pickling) and use clean tool or hands also washed in vinegar, it simply lasts ages.

I grew up with a collection of pickled items sitting on top of my grandma's refrigerator (or in the "cooler" on the farm. Pigs feet, various veggies, & EGGS!

And the idea of "waste nothing", is easily upheld when you embrace old time pickling. I love pickled eggs! I like a spiced pickled egg (cloves & "warm" spices), some with fresh herbs from the garden, or just plain garlic. I prefer ACV over white vinegar, but would never turn down any picked egg. Lol Last year we dehydrated a bunch of our jalapeños, so we decided to throw them in with a sweet brine. AMAZING! In truth, there probably isn't a pickled egg i wouldn't like and I'm sure I'll try a million recipes & then forget which one is my favorite.

After spending about an hour explaining the number line and what negative numbers were, I’d simply call out a math problem while cooking, watching TV, etc (“What’s 6 minus a negative 2” for example) and they’d state the answer. I did the same for the Periodic Table of Elements, History, Geography, spelling, etc. I didn’t homeschool them-I was Active Duty Air Force at the time I got sole custody of them at 7 and 9 years old-but I did invest a lot of time and effort augmenting their public school education in the evenings. They both graduated as Valedictorians of their high school class of over 300 students. My youngest made straight “A’s” from the time they started giving letter grades (2nd grade I think) until his 3rd year in college. He never had even a B on his report card. I also gave them reading assignments during their summer breaks. Usually one book a month and always American literary classics. Start early, make it fun, and be consistent.

When I was young, our family had a small flock of sheep. About 65 head at the peak. We would ask Dad what's for dinner and he always replied, "Ram, lamb, sheep or mutton!" Then my brother and I would laugh ourselves silly. I don't miss it though. Dad's full time job was a ranch hand on a much larger sheep ranch. So, not only did we work on all of our own sheep, we helped Dad at his job too. It was an enormous amount of work. Tagging and shearing season doubly so. I will spare the uninitiated the gory details. Let it suffice to say, that's precisely why I went into electronics. :)

[@Anamericanhomestead]

Thats one big reason why I don't do wool sheep. I tried that...won't do it again.

I am pickling quail eggs for storage so it is nice to know I don't have to refrigerate them.

[@salemthorup9536]

Wait. You don't even can them? I saw a lady that does 15 minutes in a water bath. Now that I think about it, I wonder if processing them maybe just helps the flavor penetrate faster. I wish I'd seen this video before I left all my eggs in Texas to move. I'm kinda sad now. BUT, I shall now pickle eggs forever and just leave them on the counter. I'm so excited.

[@KingKatura]

4:45 say what... No one ever has refrigerated anything pickled it defies the point of pickling to begin with. You can't even buy anything pickled that is refrigerated because none of it is. Pickling is literally a preservation method of its own.. The only reason i ever refrigerate them is to change the texture after they are pickled when cold they have a nice snap to them.

[@Schmitz3]

The CDC has only one recorded case of Botulism for Pickled eggs, and that was in the 90s, I will take my chances with home made shelf stable pickled eggs.

[@rossplainold1565]

I love pickled eggs. One of my favorite recipe is using basalmic vinegar with freshly added rosemary, onions and garlic.

[@shawnmarie1912]

Expensive, but sounds delicious 😋

[@rossplainold1565]

@@shawnmarie1912 O grow my own garlic onions and rosemary. The balsamic vinegar is reasonable price at the dollar store. LOL

[@HegenerHomestead]

I just saw a video and they mentioned there's no approved recipe for keeping eggs shelf stable so I kind of got worried cause I water bath canned some quarts of pickled eggs last year. This makes sense to me though. Thank you for speaking logic.

[@CG-mj8tk]

Thanks for this video... The reason I never made them b4 is bc I though one *haaaaad* to fridge them. So my thinking was what is the point if I have to take up more room in my fridge?!

[@windylee898]

Fantastic Truth! I have several different varieties in rotation. Great with pickled veggies...yum! God Bless you and yours Zack 🙌

[@shirleymiller5056]

Yes i remember back from working in a pub 1980 served pickled eggs on the counter for customers consumption

[@LegacyFarmandHomestead]

My grandpa always had pickled eggs and pickled sausages on the counter. Never died!

[@JoeAmerica402]

Brother you have me roll'n over here people nowadays suck don't listen to them most of them have never lived life and don't know anything. THEY JUST LIKE TO HEAR THEMSELVES TYPE LOL Be Blessed

[@JacobE-23]

Ive never had pickled eggs, but been loving pickled stuff lately so wanted to try doing some eggs. Been looking for good sounding recipes of different styles to try, which led me here. Ill be leaving them on the counter!

[@fritopg285]

I personally am going to do Vinegar, Honey, Garlic, and Italian spice mix sounds pretty good and the right color honey should give them the golden egg look

[@texaspete2549]

I just got through making my first batch of them from my yard birds! I can't wait to try them. I used fresh basil and cowhorn peppers from the garden, thyme, red pepper flakes, red onion, and chupacabra seasoning 🤘🌵🤘

[@texaspete2549]

Oh and fresh garlic

[@zappa1971]

I had people at work tell my some roasts I dry aged were going to kill me. Yeah, you know that humans have been doing that for thousands of years, right? Fine. More for me.

[@kenh131]

Soooo, what happens to the germs that fall into the picking gar.......FOOD!

[@pittschapelfarm2844]

CDC in conjunction with FB says "always wear your mask when listening to Zac!"

[@Anamericanhomestead]

LOL

[@CrochetLisa]

😂😂😂

[@munchkinlk83]

I think I am missing out. I have never eaten a pickled egg! I hang my head in shame.

[@JustMe-gs9xi]

Go for it

[@AlexaMGilbert]

Just try them. They are great!

[@notallaboutmeministry3285]

Pickled my first jars of eggs 2 months ago and we opened one. They are really good. I put jalapeño, garlic, dill, tumeric, and red pepper flakes.

[@josephbarker91]

Him talking about the cdc takes me back a couple years. Although I can't put my finger on why.

[@ruelruelan]

same is true about raw milk. We as humans have been drinking the good stuff way before these gov fools say its bad for us.

[@melissasprinkel1670]

Oh my God, a normal American with old time common sense so glad I still on your channel❤ I’m looking for a video that explains how to make canning vinegar. A lot of the videos show you how to make apple cider vinegar but everyone says you can’t use that for canning. So how do you make canning vinegar? Can’t find a video on it. I have not had a chance to go through your videos yet, but I am about to.

[@GrimeUK777]

Thats exactly why it's oickled...Whole point of pickling stuff isnt it? Can store it for ages in cupboards etc.

[@GypsyBrokenwings]

"when you go out in the real world"...in case you haven't noticed, you ARE in the real world. It's good that they know the skills. The world is just getting crazier...hope you can grow your own feed. Check out Ice Age Farmer's last post.

[@MAMABEARPREPPING]

So happy for this video!! I just did a pickled video and I have always wondered can I just do some for the shelf vice the fridge which is what I do. Thanks brother this will be awesome and great confidence. 😍🥃

[@geoffreywalkling1735]

I absolutely love pickled eggs, my go to recipe is 50/50 white vinegar and apple cider vinegar, salt,garlic cloves, hot peppers, pepper corns and mustered seeds.

[@arnoldthompson481]

I bought a gallon jar of pickles. Pickled pickles. To loarge to fit in my fridge. I set them on the kitchen floor. They molded.

[@Krylon103112]

Pickled egg sandwiches. Sliced pickled eggs on bread with other things you like on your sandwich. I first seen this from a friend in the UK 🇬🇧

[@SusieDaw-ix6pv]

Years ago at a truck stop in LOUISANA we got some pickled quail eggs. They were awesome!

[@ki4fyo]

i add curry powder to my eggs. it turns them bright yellow and they come out yummy.

[@claudiakoprinock1501]

Hello! Like your video. My recipe for pickled eggs is: 2 dozen peeled hard boiled eggs 1 can of beets sliced 1 sweet onion Dill pickle juice 1/2 cup vinegar Add all ingredients and in about 5 days they are ready to eat. I love tobasco sauce and salt on mine. The eggs are purple and the onions turn purple and taste great with some sliced beets also. I’m from Pennsylvania and I got this recipe from a German bar tender. It’s about 100 yrs old or more. Many generations made them this way and put them in- refrigerated on the bar. The vinegar was the preservative. I refrigerate mine now because I like my eggs cold. Thank you. Hope you like my recipe.

[@cynthiaweathers6979]

In the old days they had ways to keep things cool as in refrigerated. They had springs and springhouse, and the lowered things down into the wells in baskets to cool. I've seen pickled eggs sitting in jars in beer joints sitting on the bar along with jars of polish sausages and pickled pigs feet.

[@DreadPiratePapa]

white Vinegar, Pickling spice and a can of beets. sometimes onions sometimes cloves.
