Pickled eggs

Pickled eggs are a classic dish at an Easter lunch celebration in Sønderjylland, although earlier the speciality could also be found on the bar in many pubs. In both cases, pickled eggs are often washed down with beer and schnapps.

The original name in German is Solei – Sole = pickle (or brine), Ei = egg.

In the video below you’ll find a recipe and information about how to make pickled eggs.

Would you like to taste pickled eggs, but aren’t inclined to try making them yourself? Underneath the video you’ll find a number of restaurants in the region in which pickled eggs are on the menu. Bon appétit!
