How to Hard Boil Eggs to Dye For Easter 2021?

  • The first important thing one must note to refrigerate the eggs before and after boiling. This is especially significant if you are boiling two batches of eggs—one for dyeing and the latter for eating.
  • To boil the eggs, you will need a saucepan, water and eggs. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat, and then remove the saucepan from the stove. Let the eggs sit for at least 10-15 minutes before submerging them in cool water to halt the cooking process.
  • Make sure your eggs are hard-boiled and cooled before you begin with the Easter dying.
  • How long can you keep hard-cooked eggs? According to the US Food and Drug Administration, we can use the eggs for up to one week, as long as they have been refrigerated.

How to Decorate Easter Eggs?

  • You can buy the Easter egg dye or prepare it at home. To DIY Easter egg dye, mix one teaspoon vinegar with 1/4 teaspoon of food colouring. Pour the colouring into 3/4 of a cup of water. It is advisable to use a different cup for each dye and ensure there is enough water in the cup to cover an entire egg.
  • Use tongs, a spoon or your hands to place the eggs in the dye gently. The longer you leave the egg in the dye, the deeper the colour gets. Allow the eggs to dry completely.
  • If you want to add more colours, place the dried eggs in another colour, and repeat the process.
  • Once the eggs are dyed, you can continue to decorate them. There are many fun and easy ideas to decorate Easter eggs at home.
