Ingredients

8 large hard boiled eggs , peeled
2 cups pickled beets juice (I use the brine from my pickled beets recipe!)
freshly cracked black pepper , for serving
fresh chopped chives , for serving

Instructions

Place the hard boiled eggs in a 1 liter glass jar with a tight fitting lid.
Poor beet juice over the eggs, making sure they are all submerged in the liquid; cover.
Transfer to the refrigerator and marinate overnight.
Slice in half and sprinkle with a little pepper and chopped fresh chives.

Notes

Marinade time. That beautiful pink you see in the pictures is only from 14 hours of marinating. The longer the eggs are in the pickling liquid, the deeper it penetrates into the whites (and even yolks), which results in a richer flavor. Flavor is also dependent on the brine you use.

Storage. If stored properly in the fridge, these eggs are still safe to eat after a couple months, but I think they're best eaten within a week, otherwise the texture can become rubbery.
