Directions
01
To make brine, in medium pot, stir water, vinegar, sugar, and 2 tsp (10 mL) salt. Bring to a simmer, uncovered, to dissolve sugar and salt, add beet, and once returned to a simmer again, turn off heat. Allow to cool slightly.

Remove eggs from brine and transfer to cutting board; discard brine or save for another batch. Slice eggs in half lengthwise and scoop out yolks into medium bowl, placing egg whites on serving platter. Mash yolks with fork and then add in yogurt, mayonnaise, mustard, dill, remaining 1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt, and pepper, mixing until combined. Pipe or scoop yolk mixture into reserved egg whites and top with additional dill. Serve.
