Pickled Deviled Eggs image

Before they are deviled, these hard-cooked eggs are pickled in rice vinegar, brown sugar and garlic, along with slivered red onions. The pickling brine dyes the egg whites deep pink, and the onions turn pungently sweet and sour, making a terrific garnish for the deviled eggs. And after the eggs are gone, you'll still be left with plenty of pickled onions that will last for weeks in the refrigerator. Add them to salads, tacos, grilled meats and sandwiches. You won't be sorry to have them on hand.

Time 30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 large eggs
1 1/2 cups rice vinegar
6 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
2 1/2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt, more as needed
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 large red onion, halved and very thinly sliced
1 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Flaky sea salt, for serving

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.

The eggs were a bit difficult to peel, but the flavor was great.

I found that the eggs were a bit too vinegary for my taste. I would recommend using less vinegar next time.

I love the addition of the dill and mustard seeds. They give the eggs a nice tangy flavor.

These eggs are a great way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs. They're also a great make-ahead appetizer.

I was hesitant to try these because I'm not a big fan of pickled things, but I'm so glad I did! These eggs are amazing.

These are the best pickled deviled eggs I've ever had. The pickling liquid is perfectly balanced and the eggs are cooked to perfection.
