- 8 Vital Farms eggs
- 1 cup distilled white vinegar

Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil then gently add in the eggs using a slotted spoon. Turn heat down to medium so the water is simmering but no longer at a rapid boil and cook eggs for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and water. When done, remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and transfer to the ice bath. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, salt and sugar and bring to a boil to dissolve the sugar and salt. Remove from heat.
- Peel the eggs and add them to a quart size or larger mason jar.
