How to dye Easter eggs naturally

Ingredients:
  • 6 spoons with vinegar
  • 3 spoons with turmeric powder
  • 2 small beetroot
  • 1 small red cabbage
  • 1 spoon with sunflower oil
  • plenty of water


Clean the eggs with water and some liquid soap.

Clean the red cabbage and cover the bottom of a pot with some leaves. Add the eggs (4 maximum), water just enough to cover the eggs, and cover with the remaining leaves.


Put the pot on slow fire and let it boil for 10 minutes. Remove from fire, add 2 spoons with vinegar and let it rest in a cold place for about 5 hours.

In the end the color you´ll obtain will be a nice blue :).

Clean the eggs. Clean the beetroot and cut it in small slices. Cover the bottom of a pot with some of them. Add the eggs (3 - 4 maximum), cover them in water and on top add the remaining slices.

Boil them for 10 minutes. Remove from fire, add 2 spoons with vinegar and let it rest for 5 hours in a cold place. The color will be a brownish red more to the brown side :).


For the yellow, mix 3 spoons with turmeric with water. Add the eggs and boil for 10 minutes. Remove from the fire, add 2 spoons with vinegar and let it rest in a cold place for 5 hours.

After the time has passed  take out the eggs and let them dry. On a paper towel add 1 spoon with sunflower oil and rub every dried egg with it just enough to glow a bit :).


Keep them in a cold place!

Happy Easter!
