Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a ½-gallon mason jar or container, combine the water, hot yellow peppers and their brine, white wine vinegar, pickling spice, sugar, salt, and ground turmeric.

02

Step
5 mins

Gently add the peeled hard-boiled eggs to the jar, ensuring they are submerged in the brine.

03

Step
2 mins

Seal the container tightly.

04

Step
48 mins

Refrigerate for at least 2 days to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the eggs. For optimal flavor, allow to pickle for up to a week.

For a spicier kick, you can pierce the yellow chile peppers with a sharp knife before adding them to the brine, or include a few sliced jalapeños. Adjust the amount of sugar to suit your preference for sweetness.
Ensure the eggs are fully submerged in the brine to ensure even pickling and prevent spoilage.
These pickled eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
