This year we decided to try doing natural dyed eggs using food products to make colors for Easter eggs. This was quite an adventure, not all the things we tried worked as expected. Some of our tests were complete failures, others made amazing colors. Overall it was quite the learning process, and something would definitely do again.
Blueberry blue (this takes a lot of time to get this blue)
Earthy green/brown using red onion skins and white vinegar. (Again time was the key)
Some of the best results (curry/turmeric, blueberries, and turmeric/blueberry mix)
We ran so many tests that we ran out of eggs. So time to test the oven method for making "hard boiled" eggs. (325-350 degrees for 30 minutes)
Not sure what the sweating of the oven eggs is, or why it's happening.
