Why Preserve Eggs?
If your flock is in full production mode and the fridge is overflowing, pickling is a smart way to extend shelf life, reduce waste, and have a delicious snack or ingredient ready to go.
Reduces egg waste during high-laying months Creates easy, protein-packed snacks Adds variety to your pantry with different flavors Perfect for prepping and off-grid pantries
Important Note: Eggs cannot be safely pressure- or water-bath canned due to risk of botulism. “Canning eggs” refers to pickling and refrigerating them properly. Do NOT shelf-store pickled eggs at room temp.
