How to Make Pickled Cluckerberries Eggs

  1. Gently place 6 large eggs in a saucepan and cover with enough cold water to submerge by a few inches.
  2. Bring the water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, cook for exactly 5 minutes.
  3. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with ice water. Let them chill completely (about 20 minutes).
  5. Once chilled, the eggs should peel easily. Gently peel under cold running water.
  6. While the eggs cook, prepare the pickle juice: add 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion to your empty dill pickle jar.
  7. Add 4 cloves of garlic, smashed gently with the flat side of a knife, to the jar.
  8. For extra spice, add 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes and/or 1 tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce (like Tabasco).
  9. Carefully add the peeled eggs to the jar.
  10. Cover the jar and refrigerate for at least 3 days. The longer they soak, the more intensely pickled they become!
  11. For extra heat, add a 4oz can of pickled jalapeños (including their juice) to the jar along with the eggs and other ingredients.
  12. Enjoy your homemade pickled cluckerberry eggs! They are great on their own or served as part of a larger meal.
