A traditional deli-snack and appetiser all around the world, pickled eggs are perfect for when you're craving a little something salty.

Of course, eggs are great vehicles for your favourite flavour bombs. When pickling your eggs, you could add whatever spice mix you like. (The below is just a suggestion.)

So, ready to master the classic art of how to pickle eggs?

Ingredients

12 eggs
1 ½ cups vinegar
1 ½ cups water
1 tbsp mixed pickle spices (mustard seeds, pink peppercorn, allspice, cloves)
1 clove garlic
1 bay leaf

Method

Place eggs into a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to the boil and simmer for 4 minutes.
Drain off the hot water and refresh the eggs under running cold water. Peel eggs and place into a sterilised pickle jar.
In a small saucepan, heat the water, vinegar, spices, bay leaf and garlic and bring to a boil.
Remove from heat, cool slightly before pouring over the eggs, seal the jar and refrigerate for 2-3 days before serving as a snack, part of a meal or barbecue.
