Easter Egg Making
Here is the step-by-step procedure for making Easter eggs:
Ingredients:
Hard-boiled eggs
Food coloring (liquid or tablet)
Vinegar
Water
Bowls or cups
Supplies:
Slotted spoon
Spoon or tongs
Paper towels
Instructions:
Hard-boil the eggs:
Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Once the water reaches a boil, remove the pan from the heat and cover. Let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.
Drain the hot water and cover the eggs with cold water to cool them completely.
Prepare the dye:
In separate bowls or cups, mix 1/2 cup of water with 1-2 teaspoons of vinegar and a few drops of food coloring (or 1 food coloring tablet).
Stir to combine and dissolve the coloring.
Dye the eggs:
Gently lower the hard-boiled eggs into the dye using a slotted spoon or tongs.
Allow the eggs to sit in the dye for 5-15 minutes, depending on the desired color intensity.
Use the spoon or tongs to remove the eggs from the dye and place them on a paper towel-lined surface to dry.
Add designs (optional):
Once the eggs are dyed, you can use wax crayon, stickers, or other decorations to add patterns or designs.
Store and enjoy:
Refrigerate the dyed eggs until ready to serve or display.
Consume the dyed eggs within 1 week of hard-boiling.
Tips:
Longer dye time results in deeper, more vibrant colors.
Try mixing colors to create unique shades.
Handle the eggs gently to avoid cracking or chipping the dyed shells.
Enjoy your beautifully dyed Easter eggs!

Here is a step-by-step procedure for making Easter eggs:
Supplies Needed:
Hard-boiled eggs
Food coloring
Vinegar
Water
Small bowls or cups
Spoon
Paper towels
Procedure:
Hard-boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let the eggs simmer for 10-12 minutes. Drain the hot water and cover the eggs with cold water to stop the cooking.
Prepare the dye baths: In separate small bowls or cups, mix warm water, vinegar, and food coloring to create your desired egg dye colors. Common colors include green, blue, yellow, and red.
Soak the eggs: Gently place the hard-boiled eggs into the dye baths. Allow the eggs to soak for 5-15 minutes, depending on how vibrant you want the colors to be.
Remove and dry the eggs: Using a spoon, carefully remove the dyed eggs from the dye baths. Place them on a paper towel-lined surface to dry.
Add designs (optional): Once the eggs are dry, you can get creative and add designs using wax crayons, stickers, or other decorative materials.
Store the decorated eggs: Place the finished Easter eggs in an egg carton or other protective container in the refrigerator until ready to display or eat.
Remember to handle the hot eggs carefully and supervise young children during the egg decorating process. Enjoy your beautifully dyed Easter eggs!
