Wonderful eggs. My wife and sister-in-law have decided this is our "keeper" recipe. They are sweet, attractive, and very tasty. When hunting for a pickled egg recipe, I was looking for something with a little more kick to them, and I think I'll experiment with this recipe to see if I can get exactly the taste I want (maybe some extra vinegar plus some peppercorns). In the meantime, however, these pickled eggs will be our standard! In fact, I'm making them for the third time right now...
