Fermented Eggs

A fun twist on hard boiled eggs!

Ingredients

15 eggs
1/4 cup whey or 1/2 teaspoon culture starter
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 cup filtered water

Instructions

Place eggs in a steamer basket, cover, and steam for 18 minutes
Place the hard boiled eggs in an ice bath and cool completely
Mix culture starter (or whey) and salt into 1 cup of water - stir until dissolved
Peel and place the eggs in a quart sized mason jar
Pour brine over the eggs. Add water to cover if needed
Place a lid on the eggs (I screwed the lid on but did not close tightly) and allow to ferment on the counter for 3 days at room temperature

Notes

Mix it up by adding yummy things like garlic, dill, jalapeños, peppercorns, sauerkraut brine, etc
If you love these, they won't last long in your fridge. If after 2 weeks you happen to still have some in your fridge, do the smell test. If they smell the same, gobble them up! If they smell off, toss them.
