How to paint eggs for easter with red cabbage

4 servings
2 hours

Prepare all the ingredients.

Cut red cabbage in large pieces, pour water so that the water covers the cabbage completely and cook for 20-30 minutes after boiling over low heat. Cool the cabbage completely in the decoction. Boil the eggs hard-boiled for 8 - 10 minutes. Strain the cooled cabbage and add 1 spoon of vinegar to the decoction - the natural dye is ready.

Let's do the decor of the eggs. To do this, we take a brush for washing bottles, apply butter to it and make an arbitrary drawing on a white egg with butter. In the place where the drawing is applied, the egg will not be painted. Lower the egg into the dye. We do this operation with all the eggs. We get eggs at different intervals, the longer the egg is in the dye, the brighter and richer the color it will have.

I got the first egg after 20 minutes, the last after 24 hours. To prevent the flow of eggs, we gently wipe them with a rag and dry them on a grill. Taking out all the eggs, rub them with vegetable oil for a richer color and shine.

Easter eggs in natural red cabbage dye are ready! See the video for the full cooking process. Enjoy your meal!
