Pickled quail eggs recipe, anyone?

[jackelope]

Anyone have a proven recipe for pickled quail eggs?  Maybe a little spicy but not overpowering?  I've got 10 dozen quail eggs I need to do something with

Our small eggs we hard boil and drop into leftover Jalapeño juice or pickle juice we save. Month or so later they are good to go.

I've been doing chicken eggs, and found I really like that 2.5% all in one pickeling vinegar they sell.  Already has salt and sugar, just boil it and pour it in the jar over hardboiled eggs.

I cut fresh jalapeño and stack layers of onion, jalapeño whole garlic cloves and put the lid on hot.

OMG they want 28bux a gallon now!!!

I didn't pay no where near that, maybe you should make your own base. 

Cheap 5% vinegar mix with water 50/50, add salt and sugar boil it

I used straight 5% once, yuck.  Don't do that.

I'd just do a 2.5% vinegar and sugar/salt basic brine.  Hit some with jalepeno or thai chili and onion, another with dill/garlic. 

Could also do a hot pot and use them in that (which I like)  I need to come buy 2 dozen from you anyway as I'm gonna hot pot soon (I actually broke down and bought a hotpot pan too.

You can have 4 dozen
I told the kid to take them all last week, but I realized we were out of cartons. He left them all there. I've got tupperware bowls full of them now.

I've tried lots of different recipes and have come to the conclusion that I'm just not a fan of pickled eggs but the other things i add to the jar turn out pretty good. A good base brine is two quarts of water, two quarts of 5% vinegar, 3/4 cup canning salt and 1/2 cup of sugar. Boil it to dissolve the salt and sugar and pour it over the eggs and whatever else you put in the jar - I liked a lot of jalapeno slices, pearl onions and garlic cloves.

Welp. I guess we’ll find out in a week or so how it went.
