Food and Drink Pickled eggs recipe request.

SenselessChiefsFan · 10-14-2009, 12:55 PM

Okay, trying to up my intake of protein. I drink two protein shakes a day after each of my workouts, but looking for a good protein snack, that I actually like.

I hate standard hard cooked eggs. I have two current batches of pickled eggs currently and both are good, but I was looking to see if there is anyone on the board that has a great recipe that they just love.

Try Scotch eggs.

Actually, I will... but looking for something a little healthier than a sausage coated egg deep fried.

Sounds good though.

If you are drinking a quality whey isolate type protein shake twice a day, that is like 50 or more grams of protein daily. That is plenty. That is like eating 7 yogurts a day or 8 cups of cottage cheese daily. You dont need anymore unless you are trying to become Lou Ferigno.

I have a great deviled-eggs recipe, let me know... but the Mayo isn't going to help w/ your goal?

Actually, between the one scoop shake in the morning and the two scoop shake at night... I am doing about 73 grams just in the shakes, plus the milk it is in. I am trying to get 100-150 grams of protein per day.

I figure I am going to snack anyways, I might as well make it a protein rich snack.

As far as my goal.... I have gotten pretty weak since college. I can barely bench my body weight. (195)... and I want to bench 300.

I am 35 years old, so once I hit 40, any chance of substantial gains will decrease rapidly as the typical male produces less testoterone after 40.

Anyone ever go to Slagel meat market back when? they had a jar of pickled eggs that sat on the counter for 20 years. id given a hundred dollars to see a man eat one.

Found these doing a quick search:

Pickled Eggs 1
This recipe comes from the
‘Texas Rangers Cookbook” I have tried it and it is good.

1 cup beet juice
1 cup vinegar
4 cups water
1 – 2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 bay leaf
2 tsp pickling spice
½ tsp salt
1 med onion, chopped

Pour all ingredients over peeled hard boiled eggs and let stand for 3 – 4 days

Pickled Eggs 2
This recipe is similar to the Texas Rangers recipe but it uses more vinegar and more spices and the recipe calls for simmering everything together for a few minutes to blend the flavors.

1 Can / bottle pickled beet juice
3 cups vinegar
1 cup water
3 – 4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 Bay leaf
3 – 4 tbl pickling spice
½ tsp salt
1 med onion, chopped
3 tbl sugar
Cracked pepper to taste
1 tbl mustard seed
1 tbl dill seed
1 tbl mixed whole spices

Put all ingredients into a sauce pan and bring to a boil, simmer for 8 -10 minutes.
Pour over peeled hard boiled eggs. Let stand in refrigerator for at least two days, preferably longer.

Alton Browns pickled eggs
This recipe comes from Alton Brown, one of the Food Network chefs. I haven’t tried it yet but the liquid smoke seems interesting.

Dark and Lovely eggs
21/2-C cider vinegar
¾-C water
11/2-tbl dark brown sugar
1 tbl-granulated sugar
11/2-t pickling spice
¼-t liquid smoke
1-tbl salt
¾-t pepper flakes
Hard cooked eggs

Place everything in a saucepan, cook until sugar is dissolved. In a jar pour solution over the eggs. Refrigerate 4 weeks. Keeps in refrigerator for 2 months

Classic Pickled eggs
I did try this recipe and it is a very mild recipe. The cider is something different and it isn’t bad but I prefer more vinegar taste.

21/2-C apple cider
¾-C champagne vinegar
1-tbl salt
2-t pickling spice
6- whole cloves garlic
Hard cooked eggs

In a jar pour solution over the eggs. Refrigerate 4 weeks. Keeps in refrigerator for 2 months

Things you can do to personalize the recipe.
Vinegar – White vinegar is pure manufactured chemistry. Use white vinegar for cleaning countertops and floors.
Apple cider vinegar is good. It has a nice apple flavor and is one of the strongest tasting vinegars. White wine vinegar is also very good to use. Slightly milder flavor, so if you want to soften the taste try this.

Sugar – White or brown sugars are both good. Try them separately and see if you can tell the difference.

Vinegar to water ratio. More water for a lighter taste. More vinegar for a tart taste. You decide.

Thanks. I will definitely try Alton Brown's recipe.

I found some on the internet, but I was wondering if someone had an old recipe that they made themselves and enjoyed.

I've got a good one but will have to wait till I get home to post it.

MVChiefFan · 10-14-2009, 02:00 PM

step 1: Buy a jar of Vlasic dill pickles.
step 2: throw the pickles away but maintain juice (very important).
step 3: insert eggs into jar.
