Tips
- Hard boil the eggs using a pressure cooker or air fryer for best results.
- Substitute cider vinegar for the white vinegar if preferred.
- Choosing pickling spices without cloves will help prevent the brine from turning brown.
- Add red onion or sliced beets to the jar to make the eggs pink.
- Add extra dill, sliced peppers, or jalapeños for more flavor.
- If using canned beets, replace the water with the beet juice.
- These will keep for weeks in the refrigerator.
