What is your kitty's name I see em in the window over there!? Mike from Georgia.
You're a great patriot and people should tell you that every day
Tip #1: Always crack the fat bottom of the egg first, trying to push that gas bubble through the membrane.
Tip #2: Tap all over the egg really well, trying to get small pieces, then rub between your hands lightly, but firmly, to loosen shell all around.
Tip #3: Peel under water, either running lightly, or in a bowl of tepid water. So much easier.
Thnks for the recipe can't wait to try it myself. Is u cookbook on-sale or a collage of recipe handed dwn?
As a chef of over 40 years and having cooked and peeled 10’s of thousands of eggs you’ll find if you put the raw eggs into a rolling pot of boiling water they will peel a awful lot more easily. In fact you’ll find the shell with vertically fall off.
Since gravity exists, I wouldn't expect the shells to fall off horizontally...
Absolutely. You treat them like pasta......= )
Grama showed us this when small
Do you mean get water boiling first then dropem in at room temp or cold ?.
@@stephencrisci2905 If you put them in cold the shell on at least one or two will crack, they need to be a little warmed up first. You can use warm tap water to speed it up.
And use an egg basket to lower into and raise them out of the water, they all go in together and you'll save time with better results.
It's actually refreshing and heartwarming to see a woman being a MOM, and her daughter learning life skills RIGHT next to her. God bless Americans from Appalachia, God bless families doing it right, and God bless parents.
An absolute doll! So proud to be helping Mom!
I know plenty people who do this with their kids, and no mention of god is needed for it.
I remember doing this with my mom ❤ I have pictures of my daughter up on a chair helping out her grandma just like this❤
I was just going to comment on how cute her helper is. 😊
@@pozleo78Also no need for your negative comment.
That was very nice to see
I promise you this. If you put your eggs in already boiling water, you can peel day old fresh laid eggs. Get your water boiling into rolling boil then add your eggs cook for 20 minutes and then do everything else you just did and I promise you the shells will fall right off them. The trick is putting them in boiling water, not bringing the water up to a boil with the eggs already in it. I’ve had chickens for 30 years and I just learned this.
Wow. I’m going to try this.
Thank you!
i will try this i have seen so many different suggestions a little vinegar seems to help but not sure yet
Supposedly the trick is to put them in ice water bath to make them easy to peel.
I do the same thing. bring your water to a boil then add your eggs for 15 min.. then put it under cold water from your tap for about 5 min then add ice to the eggs let sit for 15 min then you have easy peal eggs. Enjoy.
That Baby girl is so precious. Watch over her Momma. The world is wicked.
She is pretty adorable.
Really makes me feel the empty nest. My boy is coming up on 21 in a couple of days, but he's been with his mother for the past 12 years or so, but I still miss having him around to cook for and goof around.
Pickled eggs + Beer = Explosive situation😂
With a nice aroma accompaniment, depending on who dealt it.😜
Worth it!
Yep, add peanuts for texture!😂
Lmfao 😅
Favorite combo
Just the simple interaction with your daughter makes me smile. Knowing you take the time and make an effort to include your children in your everyday things is something to cherish. I wish my parents did that for me. I will definitely try this recipe. I wish the best for you and your family.
thank you
You know a true southern cook when they have apple cider and white vinegar in the Gallon size !! Enjoyed this video !
Not sure how that’s a sign of a southern cook? I’m a northerner and usually have several gallons of each in the pantry. Lol. But then again I may not be a normal northerner. 😂😂😂 Growing up we always stocked surplus items: salt, sugar, vinegar, flour. These were staples that basically went into every thing else. We filled the freezer with fish, venison, apples, berries and rhubarb. All stuff that could be found naturally on our homestead. We bought very few groceries. We even made our own maple syrup and maple sugar. It was a great childhood.
@@michiganmoto7687 Sounds like a great childhood and way of life. I'm from the north and always have several kinds of vinegar; cider and white always gallon size. Generally southern cooks use much more of it in their dishes and style of cooking greens and such. Homestead living would certainly be beneficial these days. I'm guessing you are high up in "The Mitten" where trapping, hunting and self sufficiency is more prevalent !?
@@shelleyrenee4889 I am. Originally I’m from north of the bridge but now just south of it. Followed family to stay in touch better.
@@michiganmoto7687 Beautiful land in Michigan. I remember as a young girl going to a farm getting fresh eggs and milk in a glass gallon jar. That would be nice these days. Hope you and your family still Homestead.
@@shelleyrenee4889 unfortunately I’m pretty much all that’s left now and I’ve become more of a hunter/gatherer now. It’s time to unload large possessions and travel for fun. I’ve traveled a lot for work but never got to enjoy any of the places I went. Now I want to do it on my own time and stay as long or as little as I want somewhere. Lol
Your daughter is a content happy child. Her humming was precious. I will have to make these eggs 😊
That is the cutest little girl!!! Adorable!! Angels of Heaven on Earth.
Your daughter was taking point! not just helping but leading the narrative. (She has to have done this before.) great job Momma!
I think it’s wonderful how your children love helping you with everything! So many children are losing out on being raised this way. Your children are blessed.
It is very nice seeing you and your daughter in the kitchen together
I have to thank you for this recipe. I made them when this video came out and just cracked into them today. They’re amazing! I even took a few to the next level by taking the yolks out and deviling them, putting the yolk mixture back in the white, and topped each half with one of the picked jalapeños. Oh my word, they were absolutely delicious!
Oh my gosh, I have never thought to do deviled eggs with them! Im definitely going to give it a try! Im so glad you loved them!
That’s a great idea!
This makes me feel so slow! Haha
She is THE most precious thing in the world. Love how you cook together and enjoy each other company. Thank you for sharing.
GOOD on ya, Momma for having your little daughter work with you! She’s learning to work carefully, and together. Both of those concepts will last for her lifetime.

Maggie is the cutest little helper, you can tell she loves to help her momma, my mom used to make pickled eggs for Easter every year when I was growing up, she used pickled beets juice and they were purple. Enjoyed the video.
After the hard boil, I like to bounce the eggs around in the emptied pot to crack the shells before dumping in the ice bath or running cold water; they peel so much easier that way.
Another thing I do is keep all the eggshells, dehydrate them, then grind to a powder and add that back into the chicken feed for free calcium.
BTW, your assistant is awesome and I'm sure she'll be making full meals soon but still standing on a chair to do so.
Great thing about the brine is that it can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. I save all of my Cowboy Candy brine to be used in the next batch.
Subscribed!!!!!
I have cooked eggshells and crushed them and put under tomato plants. Tomato plants need calcium.
I just learned about steaming the eggs instead of boiling them the Instant Pot works great for this.. our fresh eggs peel so much easier this way! Wish I had known about this method years ago.
Yes, the instant pot is great for "boiled" eggs, makes peeling even fresh eggs easier! The Garden Tiller Boy's mom.
I put in ketle and bring to boil 2 min and turn off and let sit for at least 10 min or so - then rinse cold water and shake against kettle with water cracking them to get shells loose
I steam mine, have a large stock pot with a steamer insert, generally do 18 at a time. I steam them for 18 mins, they come out perfect every time, tender whites with good body and soft yolks with no greening at all. Follow that up with a 5 min soak in cold water and they peel very easily.
Howdy:
Up here in NE Pa. we make our pickled eggs the Amish way. We boil them like y'all do, but after we peel them, we make a brine of 1 cup White Vinegar, 3/4 cups of sugar, and the juice and pieces of 3 cans of Sliced Red Beets. Everything else is just like you do it. We let them set in the fridge for at least 2 weeks. It sounds crazy to folks who never heard of it, but up here that's the only way we do them. I've seen pickled eggs done without anything BUT the vinegar and sugar, AND I've seen them done with just Vinegar? The ones done in just vinegar get like rubber balls, very tough and chewy. I guess some folks like them that way, we don't.
Our oldest son makes Cowboy Candy, but not the pickled eggs like yours. I'll have to send him this TH-cam video.
I LOVE the Cowboy Candy!
Thanks for letting me rant.:
Red beet eggs that’s what I grew up eating. My mom’s family is Pa Amish. She’d make them every holiday and shoe fly pie. I still carry on the tradition.
M&M SPECIAL EGGS, really enjoyed watching you two working together making these pickled eggs. Especially enjoyed Maggie working and humming while she worked and sharing how much she has learned about making those pickled eggs. You and Andy can be proud parents of the future generations you have raised. Thanks for sharing with us and teaching a new recipe while showing what to do. Stay safe and keep up the great work you all do around there. Fred.
Once again thank you my mom made pickled beets then put the eggs into the.beets I might try that to it dyes the eggs purple .
I just put cold boiled peeled eggs in my sweet pickle jar. And after a week in frig they are Delishious!!🥰
I LOVE pickled eggs. I have always bought the gallon of Penrose Sausages and after we eat them all all you have to do is fill the jar up with hot boiled eggs. And OMG! My kids love it. 😍
Agree with previous comment about putting the eggs into boiling water and they will all peel easily. Try a quick test with three eggs and you will always do it in boiling water after that. Like the fact that you are teaching your child how to do things, that is awesome.
You got quite a little helper, glad to see her participating. She’s a little cutie.
Thanks Meagan. The way I peel my eggs is to rap the pointy end on the table, flip it around and rap the rounded end, then gently roll the egg on its side one complete turn. Don't roll it too hard or the egg will split. This method works for me even with fresh eggs. Much Love ❤
Sweet little Maggie helping her momma out, just precious! Thanks for the video guys. Love these videos!
Thank you so much!
Excellent seeing you teach our next generation, great video.
Looks wonderful, loved your little girl's helping,🤗 blessings to you
One of my favorites is just using the pepperoncini juice once I'm finished with my jar of pepperoncinis. But I've use lots of different mixtures. This spring I'm going to try and smoke some eggs then pickle them. They're awesome that way!
I'm going to try this, we have 20 dozen eggs in the fridge right now, and getting 2 dozen every day. I love pickled eggs!
First time watcher...what I really loved was to see you working with a helper...God bless...❤
Love this! Being a Englishmen we love pickled eggs I'm going to try this version for sure. Pickled eggs are sold in every fish and chip shop as a condiment.
That girl is the sweetest. I want to watch her cook
Hi Megan i make pickled eggs with white vingar and beet juice turns the eggs a pretty pink color and they taste good. I will try your recipe. Thank you
Yes I love them this way as well!
Red Beet eggs! With plenty of sliced beets in the jar as well. Yum!
These sound absolutely delicious. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you for such a yummy egg recipe❤ I love your accent. My Dad was from Texas and all his family had accents. I agree with other comments, your daughter is precious😊 I love the way you both cook together.
God's blessing on your family🙏
Meagans pockets full of eggs .
So precious ❤😊❤
That little baby girl is a LITTLE DOLL!
She stole my heart!
Thanks Megan for another great video. We love pickled eggs, and cowboy candy.. can’t wait to try this. I’ve never done them quite like that. Maggie is the cutest helper. We really enjoy you and your farm updates. Thanks for sharing. 😊God bless
Thank you so much!
I watched this video a couple of weeks ago and decided to try your pickled eggs. Never had a pickled egg in my life, until now. And I've got to say, I am totally hooked. The sweetness and the firm texture is amazing. Definitely going to be a regular treat in my fridge from now on. Thank you for sharing ❤
I've tried every way in the world to peel eggs. The best way for me is to Crack the shell all over and use a teaspoon and start at the air pocket and go between the egg and membrane and the shell will slide right off. Try it and see if you like it. I love your videos. Very informative.
Absolutely loved this video. Big fan of pickled eggs. Love you accent love how amazing you share and totally love your daughter being apart of this. America would be a BETTER place with people like you ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words
As a home school mom and Gma it was lovely seeing you and your daughter working together. She is delightful
She is too cute!!! She loves being around momma.❤
Love love love your "assistant". One day she'll be passing the recipe on to her kids.❤
Thanks for this. Something that works for me is to slightly crack the round end before dropping them in to boil helps release the egg shells very nicely.
Yes, snapping the membrane makes peeling the eggs so easy. Lightly tap the round end of the egg with a metal spoon just not hard enough to break the egg through. You will hear a popping sound. ❤
Nailed it . 😊 Thank y'all for sharing 🙏 a wonderful story 🙏
You and your family are absolutely precious, I love watching you
Thank you so much!
Google spoon tap for making eggs easier to peel. You basically tap a spoon on the bottom of the egg and you'll hear a snap, what that does is break that membrane under the egg shell, then you boil them. Don't do it too hard, but sometimes there might be a fine crack, but not enough for the egg to come out while they are boiling. When they are cooled off you roll them on the counter to break the shell around the egg and they come off super easy after that. After I saw that, it was a game changer and it works. Makes making hard boiled eggs so much easier. You'll see :-)
You've got your adorable little kitchen helper.
Thank you. Great recipe! God Bless, stay safe and warm.
Great recipe and a wonderful little helper. Thanks.
My chickens are laying good so I will try your recipe out in a day or so. Thank you
I used to boil old eggs eggs only . Now I do them in my Insta pot in a strainer basket. I use fresh extra large or jumbo eggs . Add 3/4 cup hot water, high for 1-1/2 minutes, off for 10 minutes. Should lose pressure on its own. Then into cold or icy water. Easy Peel-eeezy!
We steam our fresh eggs , seems to work for us. Love your station and your little helper. Blessed
Your daughter is so cute I have a 4 1/2 year old daughter she loves helping me cook and pretty much doing anything she's always sticking by my side. She always says she wants every day to be Daddy Daughter Day 😊
In hot weather on road trip I simply put boiled eggs in a jar of dill pickles juice with pickles out ate them for weeks in very hot weather very good and still around thirty years later 😅
Love some pickled eggs! And your lil helper made the video extra adorable! My daughter loves to be in the kitchen with me too, it's so great!
I stumbled onto this idea when making cowboy candy. We made too much brine so we just added boiled eggs to it in a half gallon jar....really good!
Gentlemen this is a real woman! You keep those baby dolls and pinup chicks. I’ll take a beauty like here any day!!!!
Peeling eggs under running water goes a lot faster. You can place a colander to catch the shells from going down the drain.
Love your helper . Love ferments and I love Anna's Fermented February 😊
I first tried red beet pickled eggs last month, my first trying any kind of pickled egg, and now I'm on a bit of a mission to try different pickled egg recipes. This one's next! Thanks for sharing!
To peel them fast and easy try this...put the egg in a pint Mason jar with a little water and shake it...the shell comes off in about 2 seconds...works like a champ...makes peeling eggs so fast
Your right
That’s the way Maggie peels them ☺️ she loves shaking the jar
Lady you gonna get me kicked out of my house 😂😂😂 When I read the title cowboy candy pickled eggs I thought to myself that sounds delicious. But I know my husband and my kids and they are going to say oh God, who has Mommy been watching on TH-cam😂😂😂😂 I can hear them now. But as soon as I get a chance I am going to be trying this.
I have been trying different things with my fresh eggs...found the best for all of my eggs...poke a tiny hole in the round end before your normal boiling process and after trying so many other suggestions this is spot on advice
My wife wont make me pickled eggs anymore. She said they make the house smell bad. You can't even smell them eggs when they are in a jar. I don't see where she gets that idea.
If you start making them, she will probably finish. If my hubby takes too long to get to a project. I just start it, and his pride makes him step in 😂
Delightful to watch the little girl with momma ❤.
I'm going to try this with Swerve brown and white Keto sweeteners! Thanks for the recipe!
I’ve got to try this. ❤ I canned about 18 jars of pickled eggs, a few months ago…water bathed them. They are delicious. Those look amazing!
Your channel is also good for sailors who sail far and wide. Keep up the good work. Subscribed!
Thanks Mom and Maggie! They look great and I'll try 'em!!! Thanks for your work!
I love pickled eggs, also I love your southern accent you sound so sweet when you talk. This was a joy of a video.
I love watching you. My husband and I are trying to catch up on all of your videos. I usually make regular pickled beet eggs for Easter but had to try theses. This one about the cowboy candy eggs looked so good I made some a week ago. I cant wait until they are done. I also have my daughter watching you now. Her family has chickens and a small garden so I thought her watching you she could get tips and ideas. Keep up the good work and making videos.
Thanks Appalachian Ways...ya got me graving...looks fantastic.
I hope to try this recipe soon! I tried waterglassing eggs for the first time last year and they were great! We like to share our eggs with friends with this is another way for us to preserve some for ourselves! Thanks!
Thank you for that recipe! I like to add a few sweet onion slices and yellow chile peppers too. 👍🏻
I love pickled eggs, gonna try your recipe. Thanks
I’ve always loved pickled anything growing up on a ranch. Surprised at how many folks have never tried them… more for us & I’ll try these soon as our chickens are laying to many to count. Thanks for posting
love pickled eggs but not the heat. they look delicious. have a good week.
Thank you for the recipe. Sounds delicious and cannot wait to try.
This is so good! I will be making another large jar soon. Thank you!
Thanks, heaps! lovin your style.
I've been canning cowboy candy for more than than 12 years and always had leftover broth which I used to make pickled eggs, pickled garlic and (sliced) cucumber pickles. Because of the high amount of sugar, the family wasn't a big fan of the eggs but I love your idea of reducing the sugar and adding white vinegar. Thanks for the idea and I look forward to trying it!
Just made my first batch tonight -- can't wait for the month to be up, so we can try them.
God bless from up here in northern Canada!
It's good that you have good quality time with your kid. Ding it would be nice a lot of other people would do the same. God bless you and your family. God bless America in the world.God bless the children and keep them safe from harm👍🙏🇺🇲😉
I use a mix of pickled beet juice apple cider vinegar and sugar it makes pretty good eggs.Thanks for your recipe.
I love cowboy candy !!!!! Nice job 👍
The way my mom taught us was dip them in a pan of water as you peel em. Worked for us years!! Take care!
You have such a cute little girl, and the way she just jumps in and does things just makes me smile. You guys have a beautiful family, and I love watching your videos. I've never made pickled eggs this way, but it sure sounds good. God bless you 🙏 ❤
❤ little sweet girlie Maggie … I enjoyed her helping and being so proud of her pretty egg!
I enjoy picking eggs, but ur recipe sounds great 👍. Ty for sharing this with us ❤😊
I’m definitely trying these! Yum! Eggs are so very good for you & I always look to see new ways to use our free range here on the farm eggs
Loved it.
I've never had pickled eggs.And I just might try this one.Thank you so much great video
I love pickled eggs! I’m glad I came across this video! I will be making them! And I’m going to go ahead and tell you how I peel my eggs! Put hot egg in a clean drinking glass and shake! The peel comes off very easily!
I love pickled eggs and cowboy candy, what a nice collaboration. Thanks for the recipe, I just made it and now I have to wait for it to pickle. Nice video.
I currently have a gallon jar in my fridge for my son to take to share at his workplace. He likes his on the spicy side so jalapeños are always plentiful! I'll try this recipe next time. Thanks for sharing❤
That recipe looks good! Going to try that this weekend!
I'm from NC. Love the recipe and your accent even more. Reminds me of home. Keep up the good work!!!!
