HOW TO MAKE COLOURFUL MARBLED EGGS

First, put the eggs in a pot of water.

Bring to boil for 7 minutes. Then turn off heat and leave the eggs to cool in the water for 5 minutes. You can then remove the eggs from water and let them cool for a further 1/2 hour.

After eggs have cooled down, lightly tap them against a hard surface till cracks appear all over. Be gentle as you want the shells cracked but still intact.

Now prepare a freezer bag or sandwich bag for each colour you’re using.

Now stick your eggs into each bag and start dyeing. As liquid food colouring, all one needs to do is pour in a tablespoon of dye into the bag.

Roll the eggs around in the bag to make sure the shells are properly coated with dye. Leave for 30 minutes to allow colours to absorb.

After 30 minutes, rinse the eggs under water to remove excess colour in the sink. Then splash the eggs with some white vinegar to set the colour.

Use a paper towel to dry the eggs up. They are now ready for showing off! 

When you feel like eating an egg with a sprinkling of salt, grab an egg and peel off the shell…

Tadaa! Surprise marbled easter eggs, DONE!
