“Above freezing…perfect for outdoor cooking” 😂

Hi, when you are curing yokes, you have to do it with a mix of sugar and salt. Otherwise they would be too salty. Where I worked we did a 2 sugar 1 salt ratio. 5 days of curing, washed the dried them. We grated them on steaks, pasta and seafood. 😊

never in a million years would have I thought of trying pickled eggs. But you hosers convinced me so I put 3 hard boiled eggs in my wife's sweetish pickle brine and I just gone telling her how unreal they are! What an amazing resourceful way to preserve eggs! We are overwhelmed with the amount we have at the moment so I'm so excited to dial in a recipe we like! Thanks so much for sharing guys! You're amazing and CONGRATS on you're new adventure with the new homestead!!!!

U.K. 🇬🇧 checking in, here there is a version called “graved eggs” the curing mix is 50/50 salt and sugar, after 2 hours dig out and rinse the yolks, serve on hot buttered toast, kind regards Tim

2 HOURS, that's it ??? excited about this option!!! & I think I will try using "silicon baking muffin cups" in an effort to save on salt.

Use the salted egg in stir fry! Grate the salted egg and throw it into a pan of oil on medium heat. Use it to coat your favorite veggies in a rich, salty, savory egg sauce. Snap peas and even potatoes are great like this.

I really enjoy these egg pickling videos you have, also the updates on them.

When cooling boiled eggs, I tap the egg on a solid surface "after boiling of course" enough to put a small crack in it "I use tongs handeling the hot eggs" then I drop the egg in a container of clean ice cold water. This sucks water into the egg as it cools and the shell just glides off the egg after it completely cools. I boil eggs every morning for my breaffast. Crack them and drop them in the water as soon as they come out of the boiling water and leave them in the water until completely cool.@@cathykillion6544

From what I've heard and seen (haven't tried it yet myself), salt-cured egg yolks are used as a topping for salads, soups, sandwiches, casseroles, and so forth. You add them to sauces, too, as they apparently help boost the umami and the flavor. It's used much like grated cheeses, but has the benefit of having no milk, so if anyone is lactose intolerant, they can use salt-cured yolks instead.

If only there was a way to save all that leftover used salt that wouldn't make you sick. I know it's abundant and all but it still bugs me when I watch a yolk curing video and WAY too much gets used and then all of it gets tossed. If the world goes to hell, people don't have a clue how valuable salt will be. Yeah, it adds flavor but it's also needed for life. Especially for animals. Idk if cured yolk salt is safe for animals (I'd imagine it is) but if it is, it would be good to make into a salt lick for our critter buddies at least.

A neat egg peeling trick is to crack the top with a spoon, and use the spoon to help remove the shell. Just slide the spoon in the crack with the scooped side of the spoon on the egg, and just rotate the egg with your other hand, the egg shell usually gets removed in ONE piece, it’s such a quick and easy way to remove the shell. I hope that made sense, if not I’m sure there are videos on it 😉

I started out doing pickled beet eggs and then found you guys through a suggestion when I was looking up a traditional Pennsylvanian pickled beet egg recipe. Your vid inspired me to try what you both call a "classic" version (eg garlic, red onion ,mustard seed, peppercorn, etc.) when I found a comment from some guy from the South talking about his elderly neighbor making "maple pancake eggs." I tried replicating the taste, and though they didn't taste exactly like maple pancakes (the commenter said her's did), they are now my favorite version. The brine is the same ratio as yours, but 2/3 apple cider vinegar and 1/3 distilled. Flavorings are: molasses, maple sugar (crystalized maple syrup), a bit of white sugar, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and cinnamon. They also have a beautiful deep molasses color to them. Once beets come back into season, I'm doing a hybrid of my new molasses brine and Pennsylvanian Dutch pickled beet eggs.

Agree - a Wednesday video is a real treat! Hey, I found a foolproof way to peel really fresh eggs. Steam them for 21 minutes in a big pot with a steamer basket. Easy peasy and no flaking off of the egg white when peeling off the shell. This method works like a charm but it might not work for large productions such as your pickled eggs.
