Comments
- added hard boiled eggs for Thanksgiving and my husband family loved them. Everyone could tell the beets were homemade opposed to when other guests bring store bought. They loved the unique spices."

- A very nice pickled beet recipe. With a couple more beets there was a enough brine for 5 pints. I'll just cook up extra in my next batch. I used allspice powder because that was what l had.

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. + chilling MAKES: 12 servings

Ingredients
2 cans (15 ounces each) whole beets
12 hard-cooked eggs, peeled

Drain beets, reserving 1 cup juice (discard remaining juice or save for another use). Place beets and eggs in a 2-qt. glass jar.

In a small saucepan, bring the sugar, water, vinegar and reserved beet juice to a boil. Pour over beets and eggs; cool.

Comments
-add about a tablespoon of pickling spice(McCormick or Ball).. Also, I used ALL of the juice from the 2 cans of beets... You can probably get away with 3/4 cup sugar to perhaps let the vinegar shine through a little more.

-same as I ate as a kid growing up in the Penna. Dutch area. I did add a few peppercorns and a few cloves.

-"This is the almost exact recipe my mother passed down to me, but we always added a medium sliced onion, 2 cups of water (not 1) and ALL the juice from SLICED beets to our eggs. We also let them sit in the brine for at least 3-4 days so that the lovely magenta color would soak all the way to the yolk. LOVE them, and for us they are also an Easter dish. I'm 74, so I know this is a very old recipe since my mom served it to us as little children."

Comments
"these are the first pickled eggs I have ever tasted or made, so I did not really know what to expect. They are very easy, and I think would also be great sliced on a salad, or tea sandwiches. I think that next time I may kick up the spice a wee bit, perhaps add a bit of red pepper flakes. My cloves were not the freshest, so that could be the reason they were more mild than expected."
