Equipment

  • 1 medium saucepan
  • several bowls for dyeing
  • 1 whisk or spoon
  • 1 strainer
  • 1 set measuring cups and spoons
  • several paper towels
  • several white cloth or old newspapers for drying

Ingredients
  

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup water (for boiling)
  • 1 cup water (for dyeing)
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 cup beet juice (for red dye)
  • 1 cup yellow onion skins (for yellow dye)
  • 1 cup spinach leaves (for green dye)
  • 1 cup blueberries (for blue dye)
  • optional edible flowers or leaves for decoration

Instructions
 

  • Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and then let them simmer for about 10 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool completely.
  • Prepare natural dyes: For beet juice, blend cooked beets with a little water and strain to extract juice. For yellow dye, boil onion skins in 1 cup of water for 20 minutes and strain. For green dye, blend spinach leaves with water, then strain. For blue dye, boil blueberries in water for 20 minutes and strain.
  • In separate bowls, mix each dye with 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
  • Dip the cooled eggs into the prepared dyes. You can leave them submerged for a few minutes for a deeper color or remove them after a few moments for a lighter shade.
  • Carefully remove the dyed eggs from the dye and place them on a paper towel or cloth to dry completely.
  • Optionally, use edible flowers, leaves, or even a wax crayon to draw designs on the eggs before dyeing to create patterns.
  • For a more vibrant color, let the eggs sit in the dye overnight. Use gloves when handling the dyes to avoid staining your hands. Experiment with different combinations and patterns for a unique aesthetic.
  • These dyed eggs can be used for decoration, an Easter egg hunt, or as a tasty addition to your brunch spread.
