New clovegarden question
http://www.clovegarden.com/recipes/gad_eggpkl1.html
Scalding: The first batch of pickled eggs I ever made, I used cider vinegar, and didn't do this final scald. They were delicious, but could give Ex-lax a run for its money, and I mean run - immediate, urgent, but surprisingly gentle. I can not guarantee you would get the same result, so scald before packing in the jar to prevent this.

this is the only reference to scalding on the page and is not well described on what actions to take

That is from step 5, which refers to note-4 on scalding. It is where the eggs are
briefly stirred into the pickling solution at boiling temperature. I will look at clarifying that step.

New Poblanos are quite variable . . .
. . most are mild, but every once in a while one will try to kill you. That's why non-authentic Mexican restaurants use Anaheims - they don't want to risk offending their non-authentic customers.
