How do you boil an egg for egg dye?

ok you will need to put a pot of boiling water on the stove and boil the water once it has boiled remove from the heat and place the eggs in the water gently they can break let them sit in the water for 25 -30 min. then take them out and you have hard boiled eggs there is other ways to do it but i got that way out of a cook book a long time ago and it said it is the perfect way to make them because when they are a little green on the inside that means there over done they will still taste fine and be fine but are over done the way i said has no green if done right its just bright yellow oh and if your not aloud to use the stove PLEASE have your mom help you

good luck happy Easter

oh yea after boiling you will need to cool them put them in a ice bath (a bowl with ice and water) and pop them in the fridge and check them like every 5 min to see if cooled may need to add more ice..then ready to dye them

Yes, asked your Mother first and get her permission.

1. Fill a pan or pot with cool water, place the eggs in the pan make sure they are covered by the water just a little say 1/4 to 1/2 inch.

2. Turn on the heat and boil the water, afte the water starts boiling, let it boil for say 12 minutes.

3. Take the eggs to the sink and just run some water in the pan till you have cooled the water, and let set for 10 minutes.

4. Take out the eggs let dry and you are ready.

Food colouring in water is what we used. Boil the eggs for 10-20 mins, making sure there is always water in the pan, top up the water every minute or so, so it doesn't boil dry.

The get your mums food colouring out, the stuff she uses for icing on cakes, and mix with a little water and dip the cooled eggs in it.

Or if you want them all the same colour, you could add the colouring to the boiling water - but don't use your mums best white saucepan, or she'll have a fit. ;o))

boil the eggs in boiled water for 10 minutes then take them off the water set aside until it cool

put the eggs in cold water just over the top of them in a sauce pan , put them on the stove at med high heat , bring to a boil , turn heat down to med , boil for ten minutes . remove from heat and run cold water over them , while still in pan .

If you never used stove

PS Now it is time to dye them

HARD BOILED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. AND YES YOU SHOULD GET HELP FROM YOUR MOM BECAUSE IT COULD ALWAYS BE DANGEROUS TO USE THE STOVE WHEN YOU ARE A CHILD.

HECK I KNOW SOME ADULTS THAT SHOULDN'T USE THE STOVE.

first you put water in a round pot then you boil the water then you put raw eggs in the water then take them out when they bubble

lol when my mom did it she put the eggs in boilin water, then she threw in the peeled skins of a couple of red onions. yup i laughed at her too, until she pulled out these deep burgundy eggs
