* Simmer the chopped beets in a cup of water, covered,
until tender, 30-40 minutes, or used canned beets. Use
the beet juice from the cooking water, or juice from
canned beets.

Peel the eggs and place in the bottom of a clean glass
jar, quart sized.

In a medium saucepan, add the vinegar, water (or beet
juice if using), the onion (and jalapeno if using),
sugar, and spices. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered,
until the sugar has dissolved and onions are translucent,
about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool a few
minutes.

Pour the vinegar onion mixture over the eggs in the jar,
covering the eggs completely. If you are making the beet
pickled eggs, place some or all of the cooked beets in
with the eggs in the jar (this will help to bring color
to the eggs, and you will have pickled beets as well.)
Secure close the jar's cover. Refrigerate up to a month.

The pickled eggs will be ready to eat after a few days.
The longer the eggs sit in the pickling juice, the more
the pickling juice will penetrate the eggs.

Makes six pickled eggs.
