Cooking Instructions:
Start by boiling the eggs using your preferred method.
Once boiled, cool the eggs in an ice water bath for 10-15 minutes to make peeling easier.
Peel the eggs carefully and decide whether you'd like to halve them for dyeing or keep them whole.
If you choose to halve them, slice them gently in half lengthwise.
Prepare the dye by combining 1 cup of water, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, and 10-20 drops of food coloring for each color you want to use.
Soak the eggs in the dye for up to 10 minutes, adjusting the time based on how deep you want the color to be.
After dyeing, remove the eggs and pat the egg whites dry with paper towels.
In a bowl, mash the yolks with a fork until smooth.
Mix in the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, salt, and white pepper until well combined.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the colored egg whites.
For added flavor and a pop of color, garnish with paprika or bacon bits.
Extra Tips:
When dyeing the eggs, consider testing one egg first to find the ideal dyeing time for your desired color intensity.
If you're using natural dyes, be aware that results may vary, and you might need to experiment with the amounts and soaking times. Additionally, boiling eggs using a method that includes an ice bath can help make them easier to peel.
Additionally, using mason jars can help simplify the dyeing process, allowing for easy immersion of the eggs.
Enjoy your colorful deviled eggs at your next gathering!
