mole trapper 1,646 Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Just don't eat them too quick, boy they will give you indigestion! But still love them, especially in the summer as part of a ploughman's lunch with a good pint of real scrumpy or real ale. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

neil cooney 10,415 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Haven't had a pickled egg in years. What spices or seasonings would you's recommend ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jok 3,035 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 FAO Ant. Eh up pal. You did say when I was up last that you would be having a few new birds. What happened to the walkabout bird? Don't know when I'm up the next but will be in touch. Have a good un you both. Hope you get to enjoy some of our traditions. Jok.

17hornet 188 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Well I got inspired, but cheated a bit. I hard boiled some eggs and put them in a jar that had just been emptied of gerkins (my 13yr old daughter loves them), so 'waste not want not' instead of pouring out the pickle liquid I put the eggs in there. Its mild but also has the flavour of gerkins. I tried it a few weeks ago and the eggs were quite nice, so we topped up the jar, but they are kept in the fridge. A long soak would make them excellent. Looking forward to doing some vege's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
