Ingredients

  • 20 eggs
  • 4 handfuls of onion leaves
  • 100 ml white vinegar

Making

1

Add about 3 or 4 large handfuls of onion leaves, cold water and white vinegar to a wide pot.

2

Boil for 20 minutes.

3

Put aside to cool. Add some more water if necessary.

4

Wipe the eggs to clean them well. Choose white or light colored eggs so that the colors of the dye look brighter.

5

Use a slotted spoon to add the eggs to the pot. Lay them in a single layer, carefully so they don’t crack. Bring to a boil again for another 20 minutes.

6

Remove the pot from the fire. Set the pot with water aside to cool. Once the water cools, refrigerate overnight.

7

The following day, remove eggs, drain on paper towels and make them shiny with some olive oil. Put them in a nice Easter basket!

Happy Easter !
