They're commonly available. Provisions in the city of Orange sells them, as do many other places. You can store them on the counter as long as the eggs are completely submerged in the brine, which is easy to do with a plate.

Explain the brine. I put the eggs in the vinegar and spice solution. Where does the brine come in?

That's the way I do mine with a bit of white vinegar to cover. Bring them into the Jungle in Mulege when I'm there. Go over very well....maybe because they are free.

Here is the way I do them:

Up to two dozen hard cooked eggs (instructions to follow) – depends on size of container and how many you want.

Beets – one can (15 oz) sliced
Onion – sliced
Garlic – minced
Chilies (yellow hot chilies) and some of their juice
Vinegar (distilled white 5% acidity) Do not use apple cider or flavored vinegar

Place about half of the hard cooked eggs in your container
Layer some of the beets and their juice, onions, garlic and chilies on top
Put in the rest of the eggs and add the remaining ingredients except the vinegar.
Add enough vinegar to completely cover.
Place in refrigerator for three days or so – give an egg a test on the third day and enjoy.


Hard Cooked Eggs

Place the eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Heat until the water just boils. Turn off the heat, leave the pot on the burner and cover with a lid. Wait twelve minutes pour out the hot water and cover with an ice and water mixture. Wait a few minutes and crack the shells and peel the eggs.

Note: cooking the eggs using this method should eliminate any dark ring around the yolk.

I'm sure they do go over big there with everyone except Lupe in the kitchen. I'm sure she wouldn't say a word to you, she's grateful for every dime they make off the cheap beer and drinks, and besides, it might make the customers a little more thirsty.....

That's the brine. Brine is the salt water solution (and whatever flavorings or sugar might happen to go with it). The health Gest-po rules here say you can't store them unrefrigerated unless they're completely submerged in the acidic solution.

Been makin' em for years. Always use leftover juice from Mezzata's hot peppers for the base liquid. Eggs rest in the vinegar base for 4 weeks in fridge then are eaten. YUM!! Wife hates them so they are all mine!!!

Thanks for the link. Great video. FUN surfing. I lived there in the early 70s for a few years after college.
