Ingredients for Dyeing Easter Eggs with Food Coloring

• Hard boiled eggs
• Food coloring
• 1 tablespoon distilled vinegar, for each color
• 1 ½ cups boiling water, for each color

Instructions for Dyeing Easter Eggs with Food Coloring

Gather one jar or juice glass for each color.

 

To each container, carefully add 1 to 1 ½ cups boiling water. Do not overfill and remember to allow room for the egg.

Stir in 1 tablespoon vinegar.

 

Add 6 to 10 drops of food coloring into each container and stir.

 

Using a spoon, lower a boiled egg into each container. Allow the eggs to sit for 5 minutes or more. The longer the egg rests in the dye, the darker the color will be.

 

Remove the eggs and place on a wire rack over paper toweling until completely dry.
