INSTRUCTIONS
Wash the beets; place in a large saucepan with water to cover and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until tender. Drain and cover with cold water; trim off the tops and roots and slip off the skins. Divide between 2 widemouthed quart jars. In a large saucepan, combine the rest of the ingredients except the eggs. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Divide liquid between the 2 jars and allow to cool completely. Add the eggs to the cold beet mixture and refrigerate for 2 days. NOTE: If you add eggs to the hot liquid, you get a very rubbery, practically inedible egg. Source: COOKING FROM QUILT COUNTRY, by Marcia Adams Posted to Bakery-Shoppe Digest V1 #218 by "Peggy L.
