Thank you, the sky garden looks amazing and I'm sure I'd have loved the science museum, just the kind of thing I enjoy!well if you are in or around London there is the walkie talkie building as it is like that image. It's called the Sky garden and is free of charge https://skygarden.london/what-is-sky-garden/
I've not been myself but it looks beautiful. One day I will go and see it for myself.
Also visit the science museum I've been to about 4 museums in London all fasincating. All free of charge. There is 26 free museums in London all worth visiting. Obviously you need a day to get around and see everything in one of them.
I bought 2 pots to try back home, first pot was finished in 3 days!@Antje77 did you try the pickled eggs? What did you think?
I don’t think that would work very well, I’ve found you a very easy recipe to tryI bought 2 pots to try back home, first pot was finished in 3 days!
Saving the second pot a bit longer before opening.
Was thinking of boiling a couple of eggs and just putting them in the jar to reuse the vinegar or whatever it is they were pickled in. Makes sense or will I be poisoning myself?
The eggs are put into the vinegar with shells on and they dissolve, neutralising the acid, so you need to use new vinegar every time to get the shells off.I bought 2 pots to try back home, first pot was finished in 3 days!

I can do that!I don’t think that would work very well, I’ve found you a very easy recipe to try
Are you certain though, @Resurgam ?The eggs are put into the vinegar with shells on and they dissolve, neutralising the acid, so you need to use new vinegar every time to get the shells off.

There is recipes where you can pickle with the shells on but the vinegar will not dissolve the shells, you still have to peel them in the end. (My auntie used to do them with the shells on it makes a milder egg and the “brine” has to be different) her and my mam used to argue which way was best every Christmas. My mams family used to pickle all sorts of stuff for Christmas. If you want a chip shop style egg use malt vinegarI can do that!
Except the shelling will be problematic, for some reason my chickens and turkeys lay rather hard to shell eggs, even if they're a couple of weeks old.
But this shounds like the solution for that issue:

@lovinglife 's link says to shell the eggs.
I have a couple of hens who would be good competitors!A local tradition at Easter in our pubs is an egg dump, gets very serious with massive bets on the winning egg. Hard boiled eggs boiled with onion skins then you hit each other egg the one that cracks is out and the winner goes on to the next round. My grandad used to keep an old laying hen called Etty said her eggs were like bullets
I used to keep quail and their eggs are very good, but rather tiny, so I used to put them into vinegar to remove the shells after boiling them and it was a lot easier than shelling them individually.I can do that!

Have you tried the trick of dousing the boiled eggs under very cold water immediately after taking them off the boil? That makes them much easier to peel.Except the shelling will be problematic, for some reason my chickens and turkeys lay rather hard to shell eggs, even if they're a couple of weeks old.
Especially if you crack them first, once cooled tap them and give them a little roll to break the shell then put them back in the cold water for a while, the water gets under the shell membrane and the shells should fall off easilyHave you tried the trick of dousing the boiled eggs under very cold water immediately after taking them off the boil?
