The best by date is in 2 days. I know about the water test for egg freshness so I’m not super concerned, but please give me ideas for using them up within a week or so 🥺 I’ve boiled a few and am planning to make some cookie dough, but that only counts for half a dozen.

    Pickled eggs last a long time and they’re easy to prepare. Here’s a recipe.

    Notes:

    • The recipe claims that they last for one month, but from experience it’s more like 2~3 months as long as the jar is closed. Just make sure to keep them in the fridge.
    • Don’t feel afraid to use more or less sugar or salt than in the recipe, depending on your tastes - they’re conserved by the vinegar. You do want some sugar though, to make them taste less sour than they actually are.
    • Seasoning is up to you. The recipe that I’ve linked has a few ideas; personally I like to use turmeric (for the colour), peppercorns, dill, and a few drops of my homemade habanero sauce.
