How to make yellow Easter eggs?

Yellow Easter eggs are a typical symbol of spring and Easter joy. They are associated with warmth, sunshine and new beginnings – no wonder we see them so often on holiday tables and in baskets. Although today many people resort to ready-made colors, it is worth returning to the natural methods known to our grandmothers. No chemicals, no artificial additives – just simple ingredients that we have in our kitchen. The result? Easter eggs yellow like chickens, full of magic and tradition.

Yellow Easter eggs – how to get this color naturally?

The easiest and most effective way to get yellow Easter eggs is to boil the eggs in water with spices and herbs that will give them an intense color. The best ones are, for example:

• The most popular natural dye to get an intense yellow color is turmeric. Just add 2-3 tablespoons of turmeric to water, add eggs and boil them for about 10 minutes. The longer they stay in the dye, the more intense the color will be.
• White onion husks – gives a softer straw color. Boiling eggs in onion husk brine can give them a soft yellow color with a slight brown tint.
• Chamomile – not only does it smell nice, but it also dyes the shells a light yellow, pastel color. Take a few chamomile tea bags and pour boiling water over them. Boil the eggs as usual.

How to keep the color?

After boiling, leave the eggs in the broth for at least an hour (or even overnight in the fridge). After that, gently pat them dry and, if you want them to shine, rub them with a little vegetable oil on a soft paper towel.
