     Title: Pickled Eggs
Categories: Vegetables, Eggs, Snacks
     Yield: 6 servings

    15 oz Can small whole or sliced
          - beets; not pickled
     1 c  Distilled white vinegar
   1/3 c  Granulated sugar
     1 tb Kosher salt; more for
          - serving
     6 lg Hard-boiled eggs; peeled
     1 sm Shallot; thin sliced
     3 lg Dill sprigs; more for
          - serving (opt)
     1 ts Whole black peppercorns'
          - plus ground pepper for
          - serving
   1/4 ts Whole cloves (opt)
          Flaky salt; for serving

 Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large measuring cup or
 bowl. Drain beets; if needed, add enough water so the
 beet liquid reaches 1 cup (or pour off and discard any
 excess to reach this volume). Transfer the beet liquid
 to a small pot and stir in the vinegar, sugar and salt.
 Bring to a boil, uncovered, over high heat. Reduce heat
 to medium and simmer until sugar and salt are dissolved,
 stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat
 and cool in the pot for 30 minutes.

 In a large, wide-mouth glass canning jar (at least 36
 ounces), or similarly sized lidded glass vessel, layer
 peeled eggs with the beets, along with any combination
 shallot, dill, peppercorns and cloves, if using,
 alternating all of the ingredients. Once cooled, pour
 the pickling liquid on top and cover tightly with the
 lid. Pickle in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours
 and up to 1 week, then remove eggs and beets from the
 brine and store in the fridge for up to 1 week following
 the initial brine. (The color and flavor will deepen the
 longer the eggs pickle. For more even color, give the
 eggs a swirl once or twice during the first day of
 pickling.) To serve, halve and sprinkle with more dill,
 salt and pepper, if desired.
