Dyed Deviled Eggs

I'm posting this for a friend that is asking about dying purple deviled eggs for Halloween!
Great idea.

YOU CAN USE ANY FOOD DYE TO DYE
THE EGGS ,PAAS NEON DYE ,
WILTON ICING
COLORS OR CONCENTRATED GELS WORK
GREAT BUT USE SPARINGLY. IF YOU
WANT A MORE PASTEL COLOR. AND USE
BOiLING WATER INSTEAD OF COLD
WATER
10 largehard boiled eggs
3 dash(es)food coloring
1 ccold water
1 tspvinegar for each color you are using.




Blueberries make an excellent blue dye:
Crush blueberries and add a little water to thin the mixture. Pour off the blueberry "juice" from this mixture and add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to 1 cup of blueberry liquid. Soak a hard boiled egg until the desired color is obtained.
Grape Juice Dye: A purple-blue color can be obtained from grape juice:
Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to 1 cup of grape juice. Soak a hard-boiled egg until the shell is colored.
To dye peeled hard boiled eggs, fill a glass bowl half full of cool water, no vinegar.
Add coloring/dye to reach desired color.
Gently place eggs in water, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
