PICKLED EGGS 101 =)
Easy to make and keeps for weeks in the fridge. I like to give the peppercorns a bit of a whack to help release their peppery goodness. I sometimes make these in quart jars and give away for "guy gifts"... as in ..."Playing poker tonight, sweetums?? Here, take this jar with you to give to Harold." ( Woo Hoo! ... a quiet night alone...Thank you, Harold!!!!)

Steps:
- Tap a tiny air hole into the large end of each egg with a needle, sharp knife or egg piercer.
- Put eggs in a pan and fill with cold water.
- Bring to a boil, turn heat to low and simmer for 12 minutes. ( over cooking will cause that harmless but unattractive dark green ring around the yolk).
- Drain water from eggs and immediately replace with ice cold water. ( I keep the water running until eggs are cooled completely).
- Crack the egg shells against the side of the pan and keep eggs immersed in cold water while you are in the peeling process.
- Peel shells from eggs and return eggs to cold water until all are finished.
- Remove eggs from water and rinse thoroughly to remove any bits of shell.
- Place first seven ingredients in a 2+ quart container.
- Add eggs and place covered container in the refrigerator for 8+ days for flavors to "set".
