Default Pickled eggs - where would I get them?

Any chance I might be able to get pickled eggs somewhere? My OH loves them, and I don't fancy having to pickle my own...so I just wondered if anyones seen them anywhere!?

They're really dead easy. Hard boil some eggs, boil up some good flavoured white vinegar with salt, pepper,chillis, garlic, whatever spices rock your boat, leave to cool, put peeled eggs in a jar, pour vinegar mixture over, put lid on and a week later enjoy.

My local butcher sells them from memory so you should find them somewhere.

chumley warners sells them, this is a british fish and chip shop in redland bay, they have a website, they maybe able to help you and sell you a whole entire jar. the same people own a shop, britain on the bayside so your luck maybe in. if you really want them the two hour or so journey will be worth it from toowoomba!

Pricking them with needles is a way of speeding up the pickling process, but you have to be careful not to prick all the way through to the yolk...

So only a small prick is needed

As others have said. Make your own. Cheap, quick and easy. I make them all the time as we love them, especially with cold home cooked ham.

Thats alright, the word bogan only offends people of shockingham and no one would be crass enough as to admitting that they live there right?

As for whelks...

Yes, in clacton on sea they are sold by the pint... But at wells next the sea they are sold on a polystyrine plate... Trying to be a bit more up market than usual thats all
