Savory Pickled Eggs & Sausage

Directions:

1. Hard-boil the eggs:

   • Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.

   • Gently add the eggs and boil for 10 minutes.

   • Transfer to an ice bath to cool, then peel and place in clean mason jars.

2. Prepare the brine:

   • In a saucepan, combine cider vinegar, white vinegar, water, pickling salt, onion, garlic, sugar, turmeric, celery seeds, mustard seeds, and bay leaf.

   • Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

3. Pickle the eggs:

   • Carefully pour the hot brine over the eggs, filling the jars to the top.

   • Seal tightly and let sit at room temperature for 2 hours before refrigerating.

4. Cook the sausage:

   • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

   • Add the sausage and cook until golden brown and fully cooked.

5. Serve & enjoy!

   • Pair the tangy pickled eggs with the savory sausage for a delicious, bold-flavored snack or appetizer.

Tip: For best flavor, let the eggs pickle in the fridge for at least 24 hours before serving. The longer they sit, the more intense the taste!
