THE EGGS MUST NOT BE BOILED WITH THE DYE
PREPARING THE EGGS
1. Before boiling the eggs, keep them at room temperature. 2. Rinse them with water so that their outer surface is completely clean. 3. Put them in a large saucepan and add plenty of water, so that the eggs are completely covered. Pour in ½ a cup of vinegar. 4. Boil the eggs at a low heat so that they do not crack. Remove the eggs from the water and leave them to cool. In order to be painted, eggs should remain warm (not hot).
PREPARING THE DYE
1. Fill halfway a medium glass with warm water (60 ° C) and add a teaspoon of vinegar. 2. Pour into the glass all the bottle of the dye and stir. 3. We recommend using gloves that you find in the package to keep your hands clean.
DYEING
1. Using a spoon, place the boiled eggs one by one into the solution while they are still warm (caution, not hot). 2. Carefully put the egg into the glass for about half a minute. 3. Remove the egg from the solution and place it carefully on absorbent paper towels until it dries. Stir the solution again, and repeat the process with the remaining eggs, adding two or three teaspoons of vinegar. 4. After 15 minutes polish the eggs with oil.
