This is a treasured family recipe from my husband’s mom. I was not fortunate enough to have met my mother-in-law as she passed away before I met my husband. My sister-in-law, husband, and father-in-law have shared many great stories and through them I have gotten to know what a truly amazing lady she was. This recipe for Mom’s Pickled Eggs is one that my husband raves about, so it was time to give it a try. They are amazing, with great pickled flavor. The only mistake I made was not making more!

When u say dry mustard. Is that the seed or powder stuff in the spice section??
Aw, the powdered stuff in the spice section.
Is there a specific brand of pickling spice that you’d recommend?
Hi JT, I have used McCormick and like the mixture.
I bet these would be a great addition to green salads. Have you used them this way?
Never thought of that Barbara, I am going to try it!
