Marble Dyed Eggs

Marble dyed eggs are a stunning and unique twist on traditional Easter eggs.

Ingredients

Directions

To marbleize your eggs, start by dyeing them a solid color. In a small drinking glass, mix hot water, food coloring, and vinegar. Submerge an egg in the colored water and let it sit for a few minutes. Once you're happy with the color, let the egg dry on a cooling rack for about 10 minutes. Repeat this process with all your eggs. To marbleize the eggs, fill a small container with water, add a darker color than the solid color of your egg, and olive oil. Gently stir to create swirls and bubbles on top of the water. Place a colored egg into the oily water, roll it around, and hold it in place for a few seconds to absorb some of the color. Remove your marbled egg and place it on a drying rack. The longer you roll your egg around in the oil, the more marbled it will be.
