Traditional Easter Marbled Pace Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Peel the outer skins away from red and yellow onions.
• Wrap the skins around the eggs in a random way - you do not need to cover the egg completely.
• Encase the eggs with the onionskins in a piece of aluminium foil - covering completely, OR tie pieces of non-coloured string around the eggs.
• Boil the eggs for about 5-7 minutes.
• Take off the heat and allow to cool in the water.
• Peel away the string, aluminium foil, onion skins and arrange the coloured eggs in a basket or egg holder - for the centre of the Easter Breakfast, Tea or Brunch table.
• You can "polish" the eggs with a bit of butter to deepen the colours and give them a gloss.
• Alternative dyes include, beetroot water and spinach water for red and green eggs!

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan.
• Cover with cold water.
• Bring to a rapid boil.
• Cover and let sit for 15 minutes.
• Drain water.
• Let eggs cool for about 30 minutes.
• Don't peel the eggs but gently roll the eggs on the counter until they are cracked all over.
• Place eggs back into the saucepan.
• Cover with water and green food colouring.
• Stir gently.
• Bring water to a boil.
• Simmer gently for 30 minutes.
• Let eggs cool in the coloured water for 2-3 hours.

Steps:

• Halve 7 eggs lengthwise. Remove yolks and place in a small bowl.
• Mash yolks with a fork and stir in mayonnaise, pickle relish, and mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Fill egg whites evenly with yolk mixture.

Steps:

• Hardboil your eggs normally.
• When they are cool enough to handle, roll them around on a hard surface to crack them. Try not to break the membrane. Develop a nice overall cracked look.
• Then re-boil in water with food coloring of your choice.
• You could make really cool looking deviled eggs with these.
