At that time there was a thoroughfare called Pickled Egg Walk that led from the city of London to Clerkenwoll, a northern district of the dear old town. There was a tavern in this road famous for its pickled eggs, and it is said that the merry monarch once stopped at the tavern and par- took of them. _ To 1 qt. vinegar allow one tea: spoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon white, pepper and half oz. whole ginger well‘ bruised.

Arrange the eggs with care in a small crock or in large openâ€"mouthed bottles. Now put the pepper and ginger into the vinegar and when it boils, let it simmer gently for 10 minutes to ex. tract the flavor of the spices, cover- Thcn while . hot pour it over the eggs and when cold tie down closely to exclude the air.
