Pickled EGGS and BEETS Recipe | AMISH STYLE | NOT "APPROVED" | Shelf-Stable | Water Bath Canning
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
We are well-seasoned home canners with 26+ years of experience. Being able to create a variety of shelf-stable foods for our pantry is important to us. We all need to be focused on filling our shelves with wholesome foods, whether homemade or from the store.
These pickled eggs are a great protein source for snacking or adding to any meal. They will last a long time on the pantry shelf, as long as the lids remain sealed. Once opened, store in the refrigerator for optimal enjoyment.

Pickled Eggs with Beets | Amish Style | NOT "APPROVED" | Shelf-Stable
INGREDIENTS
16 Large Boiled Eggs, peeled
4 (15 oz) Cans of Pickled Beets, whole or sliced (reserve liquid)
2 C. Pickled Beet Liquid (reserved from pickled canned beets)
2 Onions, chopped or sliced
2 C. Cane Sugar
1 ½ C. Vinegar (apple cider or white)
1 t. Ground Cloves or 12 Whole Cloves
1 t. Salt
1 t. Ground Black Pepper
Quart or Pint Mason Jars with lids and bands
INSTRUCTIONS
Hard boil the eggs, cool, and peel. Set aside in a bowl.
In a stainless-steel pot, combine the sugar, vinegar, reserved beet liquid, cloves, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.
While the pickling brine is simmering, prepare your jars.
To each mason jar, add your desired number of beets, eggs, and onions.
Ladle the hot brine into each jar, leaving about ½ inch to ¼ inch of headspace. Wipe jar rims with a damp cloth, and apply the lids and bands fingertip tight.
Process jars in a water bath canner for 15 minutes.
*In a large, covered container, you can also pour the hot pickling brine over the eggs, beets, and onions. Cover and refrigerate for 48 hours before serving.

Altitude Adjustments for Water Bath Canning:
1,001 to 3,000 feet, increase processing time by 5 minutes.
3,001 to 6,000 feet, increase processing time by 10 minutes.
6,001 to 8,000 feet, increase processing time by 15 minutes.
8,001 to 10,000 feet, increase processing time by 20 minutes.
Our canning process meets modern recommended methods. Check out this website, healthycanning.com, for more information.
FAQ: What is the shelf-life of home-canned goods?
As long as the lids/seals are intact to the jars and there is no evident content spoilage (discoloration, foam, froth, malodorous, or any other obvious signs), they are good for many months or years. "Looks good, smells good, is good". We have eaten our home-canned foods that are upwards of 10 years old from the original processing date. When in doubt, throw it out.

Our portable burner is made by Cadco/Broil King, a solid cast burner in stainless housing. Model PCR-1S, 1500 watts, commercial cooking appliance. Purchased from Amazon.
Why we store our home canned goods without the bands/rings on the jars:
1. The rings are designed to keep the lid on during the processing and cooling phases of canning. Beyond that, they serve no purpose. The lids/seals are held on by suction, not the bands/rings.
2. If the bands/rings are left on the jars, this could result in a false seal, causing the contents to spoil.
3. Bands/rings eventually rust if left on the jars, making them quite difficult to remove.
4. It's a proper technique and a safety issue.

Thank you thank you! Ive been waiting on pins and needles for this vid. I’m so grateful that you took the time to read the comments, answer them, and (after apple season) actually make this vid from a request. Purple eggs in the pantry reminds me of my sweet grandmother. Love your channel. Can’t wait to see what you put out next. Thanks again.

You’re welcome! Memories of Grandma…boy I sure miss both of my grandmothers. They had a lot of wisdom and life experience. Applying as much of their wisdom as I can as we live through these undetermined circumstances. Blessings to you! -LeeAnn

Can you use fresh beets; sliced or shredded; to make these?
@OutdoorsandCountryLiving

Using already pickled beets is optimal for best flavor. The pickled beets can be store bought or homemade and the cut doesn’t matter, your choice.

@Outdoors and Country Living My reason for asking is that the 1st batch I made, the beets lightened color wise.
How can old country stores keep pickled eggs on counter but we have to put opened jars in fridge? What’s difference, prep or ?

You may keep it at room temperature. For optimal safety and personal preference, we keep our open jars in the refrigerator. I am a certified food handler and registered nurse, fully understanding what could happen when foods aren’t prepared and/or stored properly. When storing at room temperature, it is essential that all eggs are fully submerged below the vinegar brine level. Blessings to you! -LeeAnn

@@terrie-annhone582 The only time that I know that you have to use fresh eggs is if you're going to water glass them.
Is the sugar important to safety? I do not like sweet pickled egg beets. I like them very much with a lot of vinegar flavor.

No, the sugar is not for safety. These are Amish style pickled eggs, therefore sweet. Pickled beets are usually on the sweet side, that’s why these are too.

@@ajalicea1091 honey can be used. Just know that all beneficial properties of raw honey will be destroyed by the canning process. Will still taste fine though. This recipe is a sweet one, so maybe you would enjoy our other pickled egg recipe/video that is not so sweet.
