## Tips

- Ensure your jar is relatively warm when pouring in the hot brine to prevent cracking.
- Let the pickled eggs come to room temperature before putting the lid on the jar.
- Place the jar in the fridge and wait 24 hours before eating the eggs; the longer they sit, the better they will taste.
- Consume the entire jar within two to three months.
- Sugar helps balance the acidity and does not make the pickled eggs sweet.
- For other variations like beet juice and turmeric pickled eggs, you can ask and I'll gladly make them again.
