PICKLED RED BEET EGGS
My Pennsylvania Dutch grandmother, Florence Walter, used to make these. They are especially great for picnics. The combination of pickled eggs, beets, and onions is really something special. A great way to use up left-over Easter-eggs too!

Steps:
- In a medium pot, mix 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, and 3 cups water. Add the beet and bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let cool slightly. Pour into a large heat-safe jar or bowl (including beet). Add eggs, stir, and refrigerate at least 3 hours (stirring occasionally) or overnight for a darker shade of pink.
- Remove eggs from liquid. Halve eggs (reserving the whites) and gently transfer the yolks to a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon vinegar, mayonnaise, herbs, and anchovy paste to the yolks. Season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, then spoon or pipe the filling into the egg whites.
- Place the chiles, remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, the remaining pinch each of sugar and salt in a bowl and let stand 15 minutes. Drain the chiles, then sprinkle over the deviled eggs. Sprinkle with additional herbs, if desired. Serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right beets: Fresh, firm beets with deep red color are the best choice for this recipe.
- Roast the beets: Roasting the beets intensifies their flavor and makes them easier to peel. To roast the beets, wrap them in aluminum foil and bake at 400°F for about an hour, or until they are tender.
- Use a food processor: A food processor is the best way to achieve a smooth and creamy spread. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender, but the spread may not be as smooth.
- Season the spread to taste: The spread should be seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a bit of lemon juice or vinegar for a tangy flavor.
- Serve the spread with crackers or vegetables: The spread can be served with crackers, vegetables, or even used as a sandwich spread. It's a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways.
- Make the deviled eggs ahead of time: The deviled eggs can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. This makes them a great appetizer for parties or potlucks.
Conclusion:
Red beet spread and deviled eggs are two classic appetizers that are easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The red beet spread is a smooth and creamy dip that is packed with flavor, while the deviled eggs are a savory and satisfying snack. Both recipes are perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply enjoying as a snack at home.
