I don’t know about you, but here in the Haigh household we dye eggs year-round.
Although, we used to only use the Paas kit, I have since learned that normal food dye works just fine. My egg dyeing recipe now consists of a few drops of food dye, 2 tbsp of vinegar and about a cup of cold water. Easy.
The trouble is in limiting Elly to only dyeing 2 or 3 eggs at a time. Otherwise, all of our eggs would be hard-boiled, dyed and sporting smiley faces.
