An Egg fall

I ran into an extremely good buy on some eggs. I purchased them for around 2 cents an egg. They usually run around 14 cents an egg. I purchased 15 dozen. Now when I got home my wife was initially not very happy.

We live in a small apartment with a small refridgerator. So what to do with 15 dozen eggs.

Recipe for pickled eggs:
hardboil 2 dozen eggs

Pickling liquid:
1teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon tumeric
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups vinegar
Bring pickling liquid to boil.

Place the hard boiled eggs in jars and cover with pickling liquid. Place in refridgerator for a couple of weeks to allow flavor to absorb into the eggs.

Freeze eggs
Jelly jars hold 4 eggs
break 4 eggs into bowl and mix do not whip but just get them mixed like you would for scrambled eggs, place in jelly jar leave 1/2 inch head space, place on lid, label and freeze.
good for up to a year in freezer.
