    "Shelf stable" means having a pH of less than 4.6 to preserve food, distilled white whine vinegar (5%) has a pH of about 2.4 so should be all good and, if you have any doubt, you can very cheaply buy a pH meter or test strips.
    Pickled eggs are still a popular pub snack in more rural/traditional parts of England. Sometimes they'll use clear vinegar and add a slice or two of beetroot to colour them. Eggs are seasonal of course so, before factory farming, preserving them was essential. I've never seen pickled eggs refrigerated but then in Europe we don't generally refrigerate eggs generally, eggs store well for a couple of weeks as long as they are left unwashed (washing them removes the biofilm that preserves them.)

The beets will no doubt add a bit of sweetness as well as the lovely colour you mentioned to the white vinegar and is a lot cheaper than mixing with balsamic vinegar.

    I live in PA, and so I learned to make pickled beets and eggs. I kind of “wing it, but here’s my general recipe:
    1 dozen eggs, boiled and peeled
    2 15-ounce cans of sliced beets , undrained
    1 part cider vinegar to 1 part water, enough to cover eggs (try 1 cup of each; can add more if needed)
    1 T. Sugar
    2 T. Pickling spices
    Heat all liquids, including beet juice, sugar, and spices, for about 5 minutes on stove. Layer eggs and beets in a large jar with a lid. I use a 1-gallon jar. Pour heated liquid into jar, gently stirring things around. Put in fridge to chill.

    I had my two boys adding and subtracting positive and negative numbers-starting at 7 and 9 years old. After spending about an hour explaining the number line and what negative numbers were, I’d simply call out a math problem while cooking, watching TV, etc (“What’s 6 minus a negative 2” for example) and they’d state the answer. I did the same for the Periodic Table of Elements, History, Geography, spelling, etc. I didn’t homeschool them-I was Active Duty Air Force at the time I got sole custody of them at 7 and 9 years old-but I did invest a lot of time and effort augmenting their public school education in the evenings.
    They both graduated as Valedictorians of their high school class of over 300 students.
    My youngest made straight “A’s” from the time they started giving letter grades (2nd grade I think) until his 3rd year in college. He never had even a B on his report card.
    I also gave them reading assignments during their summer breaks. Usually one book a month and always American literary classics.

    I grew up with a collection of pickled items sitting on top of my grandma's refrigerator (or in the "cooler" on the farm. Pigs feet, various veggies, & EGGS! Flavors varied from year to year, but it was how we rounded our meals, especially in the busy summer months when working was more critical than cooking. And the idea of "waste nothing", is easily upheld when you embrace old time pickling.
    I love pickled eggs!
    I like a spiced pickled egg (cloves & "warm" spices), some with fresh herbs from the garden, or just plain garlic. I prefer ACV over white vinegar, but would never turn down any picked egg. Lol
    Last year we dehydrated a bunch of our jalapeños, so we decided to throw them in with a sweet brine. AMAZING!
    In truth, there probably isn't a pickled egg i wouldn't like and I'm sure I'll try a million recipes & then forget which one is my favorite.
    Above the convenience & delicious, nutritious flavors, I think the ability to put up my home grown food with ease & without electricity, is my favorite part.

      They are better if you have enough beet juice to impart the beet flavor into the egg. Better than the store eggs that are just pink.

    Fermented foods don't need to be refrigerated that is the point behind fermenting them . Alcohol is a sterilizing agent , vinegar is what alcohols turn into when they've over fermented . Vinegars used to be used to clean your surfaces in your home because there was no such thing as a detergent or soap . The whole point behind ," Let your food be your medicine and let your medicine be your food " . Fermentation is the cleaning / sterilization agent for keeping your food edible and safe for extreme amounts of time . Botulism is a bacteria and these bacteria need oxygen and sugars to thrive , they can't exist in acidic solutions .

I make my own vinegar and when the time comes that I have to preserve things that way I will, but until then YUCK!

    Pickled eggs help with hangovers by helping you rehydrate.

My job was to take care of the ducks and collect the eggs because that was one of only ways we have food on the table.
    My favorite pickled eggs would be Tea Eggs, but I also like the taste of the pickled beet eggs many in the West make them. And just as you stated, if you only use vinegar with no added water and don't damage the egg before putting it in jar for pickling they will be good. My grandmother always make sure I understand don't damage the egg for that reason. So I am sorry for those who choose to hate you for something they don't understand.

    When I was young, our family had a small flock of sheep. About 65 head at the peak. We would ask Dad what's for dinner and he always replied, "Ram, lamb, sheep or mutton!" Then my brother and I would laugh ourselves silly. I don't miss it though. Dad's full time job was a ranch hand on a much larger sheep ranch. So, not only did we work on all of our own sheep, we helped Dad at his job too. It was an enormous amount of work. Tagging and shearing season doubly so. I will spare the uninitiated the gory details. Let it suffice to say, that's precisely why I went into electronics. :)

    Two things, we have pickled chicken eggs, but we normally use our quail eggs.
    Our recipe came from Living Traditions Homestead on RUclips. We have changed it quite a bit so here goes;
    1/2 gallon canning jar with plastic lid
    5 garlic cloves
    2 tsp black peppercorns
    2 tsp mustard seed
    2 sliced banana peppers
    2 stalks of fresh dill
    1 1/3 cup of water
    1 cup white vinegar
    1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
    1 1/3 Tbsp salt
    Mix water, vinegar and salt until salt is dissolved
    Layer eggs, garlic, peppercorns, mustard seed, dill (about four layers)
    Pour the liquid mixture (salt, water, and vinegar) over the eggs making certain to cover the eggs.
    We let it sit for a week before eating them. I like the quail eggs because they are bite size / snack size
    Second and unrelated, love all of the books you have recommended on the channel especially Unintended Consequences.

    Hello after 3 years.
    For those who don't know, pickling salt is unnecessary for vinegar pickling. The point of it is that it doesn't contain iodine, and it dissolves into a perfectly clear brine. It's really good for lacto fermentation, but you could use kosher salt too.
    For the record, I wouldn't use iodized salt for any pickling, as it might effect the flavor. But idk for sure. Never tried. I always have pickling salt anyway.
