EGG-CELLENT EASTER
BY ANGELA SHELF
MEDEARIS AND GINA

T
he use of natural
food dyes to color
eggs became popular
during medieval times.
English kings distributed
hundreds of decorated,
gold-leaf eggs during Easter.
Russian Czar Alexander III
transformed this holiday
custom to high-art when he
commissioned the famous
Faberge eggs as a gift
for his wife, the Empress
Maria
Alexandrovna,
from goldsmith Peter Carl
Faberge.
Today, hard-cooked eggs
act as a creative canvas for
children and adults during
the Easter holiday. For the
perfect hard-cooked eggs,
decorated with homemade
dye, follow the directions
below.
should be kept refrigerated
and used within one week.
NOTE: The greenish
color around the yolk of
hard-cooked eggs is a natu-
ral result of sulfur and iron
reacting at the surface of
the yolk. It may occur when
eggs are cooked too long
or at too high of tempera-
ture, or when there is a high
amount of iron in the cook-
ing water. Although the col-
or may be unappealing, the
eggs are still wholesome

vor is unaffected.
Greenish yolks can best
be avoided by using the
proper cooking time and
temperature (avoid intense
boiling) and by rapidly
cooling the cooked eggs.
Scrambled eggs can devel-
op a greenish tint if over-
cooked at too high a tem-
perature or if they are left
too long in a metal pan.
Egg-cellent
Decorating Tips
1. Use crayons to gently
color a design on the hard-
cooked Easter eggs. If you
want to dye the crayon-dec-
orated eggs, the crayon wax
will resist the dye and the
design will show through.
2. Use craft supplies:
buttons, sequins, glitter,
beads, pieces of felt, or
stickers. Use white or craft
glue to attach the materials.
3. To make your own
dye: Combine 1/2 to 1 ta-
blespoon of food coloring
with 2 teaspoons of white,
distilled vinegar in a large
cup or deep bowl. You can
experiment by mixing the
food coloring to create a
variety of hues. Add water
until the cup or bowl is half
full.
4. Gently place the eggs
into the dyeing liquid in the
cup or bowl, using a soup
spoon to avoid cracking the
shell. The longer the eggs
are left in the dye, the dark-
er the color will become.
Happy Easter!
