DIY Natural Vibrantly Blue Eggs
At Blue Hollow Homestead, we love all things blue. Naturally when we learned of an easy to make all natural blue dye last year, we were all over it! We figured out a method that resulted in vibrantly blue eggs every time. How to Make Vibrant Blue Eggs 1. Boil 1 qt of water, a whole shredded red cabbage, 2tbs of vinegar, and one 1tbs of salt. 2. Once it reaches a boil, cover and let it simmer for 30 minutes. 3. Strain and keep the liquid for dying. 4. Place hard boiled or blown eggs in the dye. We found that if you use colored eggs you will get a large variety of shades of blue. 3. *IMPORTANT* Let it sit in the dye overnight. If you just dunk it in, you will get a pale color. If it stays overnight it will turn an absolutely beautiful, vibrant blue that lasts a long time. Blue, Brown, Green, Tan, and Speckled Eggs from our Chickens White Duck Eggs
