If you really went overboard with the Easter eggs this year, and you've made the eggy salads, sides, and main dishes with your leftover ovoids, but still have more... consider the future. Preserve your eggs for later in this spicy vinegar pickle. This recipe calls for a dozen hard-cooked eggs. They're great for snacking or for slicing onto salads.

Chef John's version of Scotch eggs has you soft-boil the eggs. He goes soft on the eggs to create an exciting contrast of texture between the molten yolk and the crispy sausage shell. But you can always use fully boiled leftover Easter eggs instead. See how it's done in this video.
