  1. I've been buying pickled eggs from a local grocery story. The eggs are
    in a jar of reddish liquid, which I believe is beet juice and they
    won't tell me for obvious reasons (they get 89 cents for two eggs).

    Anyone have any ideas on how I could make these at home? Maybe there
    is a better juice to pickle them that I am unaware of??

    Recipes/comments are appreciated--and encouraged!

    Thanks,
    Bozo

    I keep a spray bottle of white vinegar and a spray bottle of plain water in
    the kitchen. The plain water is mainly to spritz one of cats who has
    gotten out of line. One unfortunate night, Popie required an instant bath.
    They are now labeled. Need I say more?

    Yes, I keep both, too, on my counter. But I read further, and on that note
    of a tittering laughter (guilty, I might add), about the mix-up with DC
    (dear cat), I shall retire.
    P.S. I mark my bottles with a V and a W, but as in German alphabets, they
    are very close. I have to do a double take sometimes.
    My DH and I still have arguments about a restaurant in Vienna whether it was
    me or him (both accusing the other) of not recognizing the restaurant name
    when we passed by it because it began with a W or V -- something like Voelke
    or Woelke (for folk, I guess). It's become an amusing argument over the
    years -- "You can't even tell a W from a V!" Then we double up with
    laughter. Yes, it's time to retire for the night.

  9. actually you would be doing any cat or dog a big favor ,or yourself by
    adding a tad of vinegar to their drinking water-for their hair. Of
    course by spraying dogs you eliminate doggy odors and it keeps ticks,
    fleas and such away oh...DUK vinegar is made from ethyl
    alcohol? A bacteria that feeds on the alcohol converts it into
    vinegar...

    I'm sure it might be good for them, but I kinda doubt they'd drink it. They
    do get bottle spring water, however.

    I've been buying pickled eggs from a local grocery story. The eggs are
    in a jar of reddish liquid, which I believe is beet juice and they
    won't tell me for obvious reasons (they get 89 cents for two eggs).

    Anyone have any ideas on how I could make these at home? Maybe there
    is a better juice to pickle them that I am unaware of??

    Recipes/comments are appreciated--and encouraged!

    Thanks,
    Bozo


    What I do is buy the canned beets, use the beets for salads and pour the
    juice over boiled eggs and let 'em set in the frig a few days. Works
    for me and darned good.

    I don't do any canning or pickling but as good as your eggs sound Jim, are
    they really pickled? I don't see any vinegar, spices etc. Can you be a bit
    more specific? I might just make some up. I got 3 dozen large eggs on
    sale this week.
