[@gmtube100]

Liking your videos. All so simple! Watched your dad struggle a bit peeling the egg. Here’s my fool proof method for an easy to peel egg. Bring stainless steel pot of water to a full boil ( having enough water so you don’t completely lose the boil when you add the eggs). Gently add one dozen eggs ( and one or two weak shelled eggs may crack but i just eat those right away - lol), boil for 15 minutes and and remove immediately and place into a bath of ice water, or if not ice then fill your sink 2/3 full of cold tap water and place in there for 15 minutes. They will then peel like a dream whether the eggs are brand new or not. Thanks for your videos!

[@apinchofpatience]

So glad to hear you are enjoying the videos! And thanks for the tips :) We definitely had a couple stinkers that didn't want to peel!

My mom would always make a jar of pickled eggs with beets after the Easter egg hunt every year . I think she started it in the late 60s or 1970 which is my earliest memory of purple eggs .

[@apinchofpatience]

Thank yall for taking the time to walk us through this process , especially your dad giving up grandpa time. Never thought about the white vinegar/ GMO stuff so thanks for that also. I never heard of coconut vinegar ,great info. Now I’m new to canning and such, what is the difference between pickling and fermenting ? I’m most thankful for all the information you’re sharing with us. Really hoping you channel keeps growing. Many blessings.

[@apinchofpatience]

Hi Mike, so glad you enjoyed this one! I hope it was the kind of recipe you were looking for :) Pickling uses a vinegar-based brine and fermentation uses a brine of salt, water, and sometimes a little bit of "starter" culture, to naturally ferment a food using lactic acid bacteria. You would store fermented goods in the fridge or cold cellar and vinegar type pickles can be refrigerator pickles but often they are processed in a water bath canner for long term storage. I love fermenting and do make "pickles" with fermentation also, but they live in cold storage, and I eat them within a year at the most. Hope that makes sense but let me know if you have more questions on that! So glad you are enjoying the channel! Merry Christmas!

[@mikeclay2381]

Ok . I remember when you were talking about a culture possibly told us how to make one. I’ll have to go back and watch that video again thanks. Marry Christmas to you and yours as well.

How are the yolks after water bath canning? I would be worried about getting that green outer yolk like when you hard boil them too long.

[@apinchofpatience]

I've found them to be just fine, but I'm sure it's possible that some of them end up that way. If you're worried about it, I'd just can a small test jar and see if you are happy with the results before you do a big batch.

[@FollowChristNotMan]

Pickled eggs are good for storage absolutely. But waterglassing can have them in their original state and good for 8-12 months. Simply take farm fresh unwashed eggs (unwashed is important to keep the shells sealed) And a large (preferably glass) jar with a lid. Fill the jar with eggs then take slaked lime/builders lime ( also called pickling lime) and measure out one cup lime per quart of water or 1/32 part lime to 1 part water. Mix as much of the water and lime as you'll need in those measurements until there's enough to cover the eggs by about an inch or more. Lid it and place it in a cool dark location in your house. Basements or closets are good. Will keep for a winter plus much longer. Good to fry, scramble or bake with and are still fresh as the day they were laid.

The BEST way to peel eggs is to boil them, dump off the hot water, then run cold water over them till they cool a bit, then lightly crack them on all sides, and peel them while dunking them IN WATER. Thise shells come off NICE when the egg is kept WATERED.

You can also store farm fresh eggs in hydrated lime for a long-term storage.

[@apinchofpatience]

Yes, you can! Also buttered or oiled eggs 🥚 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpzYh598mN6Lb7c

[@SamanthaMcKinlay-d5u]

QUESTION: Do you place jars in canner with warm-ish water or hot water? Do you bring water to a boil when the jars are already in there?

[@apinchofpatience]

Always match your water to your jars. Cold water in canner = cold packed jars, hot water in canner = hot packed jars. Since these had a hot brine added, I had the water already pretty hot in the canner. Keeping temperatures the same prevents shock (less likely to break your jars). Once the jars are in, turn up the temp to medium/high and bring the water to a simmer. Once it's boiling, set the timer.

[@Chris-yo4ks]

personally, I dont water bath.....or put in the fridge. They are just fine on the shelf until they get consumed.....which doesnt take that long. I try to let them site for at least a month......but it is not unusual to start tapping into them after a couple of weeks.

[@apinchofpatience]

Thanks for sharing! Do you use a higher percentage of vinegar or anything? Always great to hear how other people are doing things :)

[@Chris-yo4ks]

@@apinchofpatience I use a 1:1 vinegar and water mix. basically the same as what you are using. I followed close to what Prepsteaders and Simple Living Alaska, and An American Homestead.

[@gypsiemomm]

I read that in the old days when they'd water bath pickeled eggs, they would push a toothpick through the eggs first to make a hole. That way the heat would penetrate the eggs during the canning process. Any thoughts....

[@apinchofpatience]

I wouldn't recommend it. Everything I know says you don't want to expose the yolk at all because it's so dense. That's where the botulism risk lies. If the yolk is not ever exposed, it is inherently steril, if you poke it tho you could introduce contamination. It would probably be fine with the acid content, but I wouldn't do it personally. The canning process really is just to seal the jars more than anything here. The eggs are clean inside if they are unbroken and the acid from the vinegar will take care of any contamination on the outside pretty darn quick. I know people who keep them Un canned in a root cellar or basement for up to a year also, they use a little higher ratio of acid usually.

[@gypsiemomm]

@@apinchofpatience Great advice thank you for the insite on this, very helpful! Okay, so we are doing this for the purpose of getting a seal on the jar. Just like people do when they can butter.

Great video😊

[@apinchofpatience]

Thanks!

[@carriesnest]

I'm just getting into canning and was wondering why you took the rings off when putting them in the pantry?

[@apinchofpatience]

Great question! It's an extra safety measure so that you can easily tell if any seals fail. If you leave the rings on, especially on tight, there is the potential for the seal to break, let in contamination, and then reseal from the pressure of the ring. When you take the rings off, it's really easy to spot if any seals fail in storage, so there is never any second guessing! Either it's sealed and safe, or it isn't. Ps, welcome to canning! I absolutely love canning and am sending you all the best beginner canning wishes for success and low stress! ❤️

[@markbailey6051]

Remove egg from boiling water and set in a pan with one inch of cool water. Break the shell and peel fast and the shell will come off easily. The cool water is only needed so you don't burn your fingers.

When you do eggs like this, how long have they been good for on your shelf?

I usually eat them within a year, but that's my personal preference for all canned goods, 1-2 years. People have claimed these stay good for 5+ years canned on the shelf.

[@overit6969]

Do you have a recipe for the pickled beet eggs?

[@billknight3873]

I'm using 64 oz jars. Is boiling time the same?

[@apinchofpatience]

I'd probably stick to the same time. It should still sterilize and seal the jars, so I don't think it needs longer, but that's just me, not an official ABC agency recommendation!

[@thelogan4641]

I've never had pickled eggs, but I kinda want to do that now. Makes me wonder what else one can pickle, I've pickled vegitables before, but maybe pickled meat or pickled mushrooms...? I do quite a bit of fermenting though, and if you haven't tried kimchi, I can wholeheartedly recommend it. It's become my favourite, so flavourful!

[@apinchofpatience]

That's so funny you mentioned meat, I'm doing an 1800s corned beef right now and the recipe calls it a pickle which just sounds so weird to me 😂 And I love fermented veggies!

Loved the video. Why did you remove the rings? How long do the eggs last after you break the seal?

[@apinchofpatience]

Removing the rings is just a regular canning safety practice so you can check for seals easily in storage. They should last for months in the fridge even after being opened.

[@apinchofpatience]

I covered the rings and showed an example in this recent video kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJLOaZ-BptuIqpo

I’m not on a farm or have access to to these things, can you use canned beets from the grocery store?

[@shermdog6969]

If they're canned you don't need to re can them. Use fresh/raw beets from the store.

[@apinchofpatience]

I don't see why not as long as the ingredients in the beets are just water, vinegar, sugar, salt... i would suggest just using some store bought fresh produce tho instead of recanning something!

[@StarfireReborn]

@connieparker8896 Several Recipes I've Seen Actually Use Canned Beets So They Don't Need To Wait So Long To Eat The Eggs, And They Use **Some** Of The Beet Juice Making Sure Not To Drop The Acidity Too Low.

So Im extremely still new to canning. Is there any reason you remove the rings after canning? I noticed your dads still has the rings on and my grandfather always kept his on as well when he would make his pickles. A quick search didnt yield much as to why just saying remove them.

[@apinchofpatience]

Hi! Yes, there is a good reason, but many folks do leave them on and it really isn't the end of the world if you do! If you take your rings off after letting the jars cool you can really test the seal and if the seal breaks later in storage it will be obvious where as if you leave the rings on and especially if you retighten the rings you could have a seal break and kind of reseal itself and you could be left unsure of the safety of your canned goods. I started canning with rings on but started removing them for storage maybe 2 or 3 years ago now. It's an easy step that makes checking the jars in the pantry extra simple, so I always do it now 😄

Why do we remove the rings from top? If u don’t mid my asking

[@apinchofpatience]

Great question! I remove the rings as a safety measure. If a seal breaks and the ring is on tight, occasionally it will sort of reseal, the lid might pop when poked (if it's metal) but still be on tight and make the vacum seal breaking noise you would expect from a sealed jar when you try to open it. This can leave you doubting the safety of your canned goods. If the rings are left off its easy to check your seals and if one breaks its obvious, so no second guessing! I actually talked about this on my most recent video where I canned a bunch of Pears because it's a great question quite a few people have asked me recently! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJLOaZ-BptuIqpo

Question.. Why do we remove the rings?

Good question! If the lids come off without the rings, then they weren't sealed properly in the first place. That is exactly why it's a good safety practice to remove the rings. You can easily check for broken seals and avoid false seals. I think I showed an example of this in another video, I'll go look and update this reply with a link.

Newbie here… would you plz clarify the recipe for your brine? The transcript is very confusing. 1. To make 3 quarts of eggs, how much brine does it usually take? 2. What is the ratio ??? I interpreted the video to mean 1.5 cups vinegar to 1 cup water to 1Tablespoon (?non iodine?) salt, Then you doubled it for 3 quarts LOVED LOVED THE VARIETY and the water bath ❤❤❤

[@apinchofpatience]

So glad you enjoyed! For 3 quarts I used 3 cups vinegar, 2 cups water, 2 tbsp salt and I had just a little leftover at the end. It will depend on how much space your addins take up, the more addins, the less open space you have, the less brine you will use. Any extra brine can easily go in the fridge and be used later. You can scale the recipe up or down as needed. And optionally add sugar or honey as well. Hope that helps to clarify!

[@rowbearly6128]

Wait, you remove the cap rings??? Just leave the flat top kept on by suction???

[@apinchofpatience]

Yes! It's actually a safety measure to ensure your seals remain intact and you do not end up with any "false seals" in storage. It's a common question, so I touched on it more in my most recent canned pear sauce video. If you want to check it out, you can skip to the chapter at the end called "safety tip" 😀 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJLOaZ-BptuIqpo

Mhmm I think I’ll have to try some pickled eggs. I have never tried them.

[@kellycarver2500]

I want to pressure can them. I'm wondering if you have ever had issues with the brine eating the metal of the jar lids? I know canned tomatoes don't last as long in the pantry, because the acid in them eats the inside of the metal cans..talking store bought canned tomatoes. I know the vinegar is a lot stronger acid than those..

[@apinchofpatience]

I've never had an issue with pickles doing that, the vinegar brine its diluted and it isn't touching the lid, my dad said he's kept them around for up to 3 years and hasn't seen any coroded lids. Another option may be to use the tattler or harvest guard lids, I've had good results with those, and they would not corrode with the acid!

Vinegar, water, and salt. Free pdf recipe link in the pinned comment if you want to have a reference 😉

Sorry, I already asked you questions but how long do I leave in frig until I can start eating them? I’m a new bee. That’s why all the questions 😊.

[@apinchofpatience]

I LOVE questions! How else are you supposed to learn? Never hesitate to reach out! I suggest leaving for 2 weeks before starting eating them for the best flavor, but you could go as early as a couple days if you just can't wait, they will just get better flavor over time 😊

[@sararamos3903]

@@apinchofpatiencethank you for your quick response. Here’s another question. I noticed that the liquid turned a bit cloudy and I can see the yolk in one of the eggs, is it ok to eat?

[@apinchofpatience]

@sararamos3903 hmm... I'm not sure if I would. I've never had the liquid go cloudy, and you definitely don't want the yolks exposed. Did all your jars turn out cloudy or just the 1?

How long do these last on the shelf

[@apinchofpatience]

I try to eat pretty much all canned goods within a year (two max) for optional nutrient retention, but they aren't likely to spoil within a few years.

[@richardsmith4187]

What is the problem with fda approved methods and those that are not ?? Is there a chance they will spoil or make you sick ??? I can't wait to pickle some eggs as I remember them when growing up. Do they have a shelf life of at least 6 - 12 months ?

[@apinchofpatience]

The fda... you'll have to form your own opinion there 😅 I don't put a tun of stock in their recommendations, but it's good to look into and decode on a case by case basis for yourself. There has been 1 case of botulism associated with canned pickled eggs, just 1, back in the 70s i believe, and that gentleman did several things "wrong" while making his eggs that could have prevented the issue. If you have a brine that is acidic enough and your eggs are whole, unbroken, I personally feel very safe with this method. A lot of amish and Mennonite folks have been using this same method for ages as well. They should store on the shelf for at least a year.

[@atzadio]

why remove the rings? won't they pop?

[@apinchofpatience]

Good question! If the lids come off without the rings, then they weren't sealed properly in the first place. That is exactly why it's a good safety practice to remove the rings. You can easily check for broken seals and avoid false seals.

[@susierandall4316]

Good job, but you forgot to tell them to clean the top of the jars prior to putting the jar lid on.

[@apinchofpatience]

Good catch, beginners may not know that step and it's always good to mention!

[@itsonlyapapermoon61]

Are they rubbery?

[@apinchofpatience]

A little I guess, but not bad in my opinion. It's worth trying a small batch to see if you like it!

What about grocery store bought eggs?? Does it make a difference on pickling them??? Please respond

[@apinchofpatience]

You can absolutely make this with store bought eggs!

[@SaintBigAl]

All the pickleing and canning vids I'ved watched why do so many remove the rings?

[@apinchofpatience]

It's a safety thing! If you leave the rings on, it's harder to check for broken seals, and sometimes you can even end up with a false seal, so it's safest to just store jars without the rings.

[@SaintBigAl]

Oh ok thanks ; )@@apinchofpatience

15 mins for what altitude?

[@apinchofpatience]

I'm at about 3,000 feet, if you are considered "high altitude" you'd need longer.

[@ericfenech906]

So the term canning doesn’t literally mean metal sealed cans, it’s also the boiling of pickle jars with lids on in a pot of boiling water? Another silly question, placing of a dishcloth inside the pot, is that to “dampen” the movement of the jars in the pot during the boiling process and prevent breakage?

[@apinchofpatience]

Yes, canning on a home scale is done in glass jars and you can use plastic or metal lids, in a water bath or pressure canner, to remove the air and seal the jars for long term storage. Also, yes! New canners come with metal racks for this purpose, but mine lost its rack by the time it made its way to me, and a cloth works just as well.
