Best 3 Pickled Pepperoncini Deviled Eggs Recipes

PICKLED PEPPERONCINI

Steps:

• Put pint jars (plus 1/2 pint, in case you have too many peppers) and lids in pan with water to boil, along with tongs and canning funnel. Bring to boil while continuing other steps. Reduce heat, or turn off after boiling for 10 minutes.
• Wash peppers in cold water, set aside to drain.
• Bring vinegar, water, and salt to a boil and maintain.
• Drain jars.
• Blanch garlic cloves and place in jars.
• Slit each pepper vertically and pack into jars. (I slit from the base of the stem down the pepper to within 1/4" of the bottom; this way there is no trapped air at the top causing peppers to float upside down, and enough juice to drizzle on the salad in the end of the pepper).
• Pour hot liquid over peppers allowing slightly more than 1/2" head space.
• Carefully pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into jar being very careful not to get any on lid.
• Process, as you wish (10 minutes in boiling water bath), or not. I do not process my pickles.
• Store in cool dark place. Ready in 3 weeks (but I have been known to open a jar the next day), refrigerate after opening.

DEVILED PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• Measure 1 cup beet juice from reserved juice.
• Combine 1 cup beet juice, sugar, vinegar, cloves, salt, pepper, and bay leaves in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes.
• Place beets and eggs into a large bowl. Pour beet juice mixture over beets and eggs. Refrigerate for 3 days. Drain and discard pickling liquid.
• Cut each egg in half lengthwise and scoop yolks into a bowl. Mix mayonnaise, relish, and mustard into egg yolks until smooth. Spoon egg yolk filling back into each egg white. Serve beets and eggs on a platter.

PICKLED DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Put eggs in a large pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to immediately transfer to a bowl filled with ice and water. Let cool, then peel.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, garlic, sugar, kosher salt, peppercorns and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and stir in onions.
• Spoon half of the onion mixture into a 2-quart jar or heatproof container. Add eggs and pour remaining onions and brine over the top. Let cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 3 days.
• Remove eggs from onion mixture and cut in half lengthwise. Scoop yolks into a mini-food processor or blender. Add 1 tablespoon of the pickling liquid, mayonnaise, mustard, pepper and a large pinch of kosher salt. Process until smooth. Spoon into egg halves, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, top with some of the pickled onion and serve.
