For a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the cayenne chiles before adding them to the pickling mixture. If you don't have beet juice on hand, you can substitute with a tablespoon of beet powder or simply omit it. The beet juice primarily adds color. Ensure the eggs are completely cooled before peeling to prevent them from becoming rubbery. Use a sterilized jar to ensure a longer shelf life and prevent bacterial growth. These pickled eggs are best served chilled.
