  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric (for color and earthiness)
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced (optional)
  • 1 clove garlic, smashed
  • Pinch of chili flakes (optional, for heat)
  • Instructions:

    1. Prepare the brine: In a saucepan, combine vinegar, water, mustard, sugar, salt, turmeric, garlic, and peppercorns. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
    2. Layer the jar: Place eggs (and onions, if using) in a clean quart-size mason jar or container.
    3. Pour in the brine: Carefully pour the warm brine over the eggs until fully covered.
    4. Seal and refrigerate: Let cool, then seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 3 days (5–7 days for max flavor).
    5. Slice and serve: When ready, slice the eggs in half and serve alongside thick-cut summer sausage.

    How to Serve It

    • Charcuterie board style: Pair with sharp cheddar, crackers, pickles, and spicy mustard.
    • As a bar snack: Cold beer, a jar of eggs, and a few slices of sausage — it’s an old-school tavern vibe done right.
    • In a sandwich: Slice the eggs and sausage into a crusty baguette with a smear of grainy mustard and arugula.
