Five ways to paint Easter eggs onion husks. How to paint eggs onion husk

Do you know why the eggs paint on Easter? And why traditionally prefer bright and rich dark red color to everyone else?

Historic replica about shards

It is said that after the resurrection of Jesus Christ, His disciples broke up across the world, carrying a scandalous revolutionary news about the immortality of the soul. With the same thought went to the Roman Emperor Maria Magdalena - it went that life would truth over death, so that the truths grew up and the bright grains sprout and gave shoots. Given the status of comradeberia, there was no gifts in those days not Commilfo, so Maria took what she was available - a simple chicken egg, in which she wanted to invest a special meaning: there, under the shell, under the shell, there is life. Analogy, I think, clear.

Tiberius, as far as I understand, did not differ long-suffering and calmly, and he heard that I tried to convey Mary Magdalena about the miracle of the resurrection of the Son of God, angry with a terrible way and exclaimed in anger: "It is impossible! It is impossible as, for example, the white egg brought by you is red! "

And at the same moment, as you know, it has become a bloody red-brown color. Since then, the tradition of painting eggs - as a tribute to memory as a symbol of faith, as a sign of love.

However, the sake of fairness should be noted that this is not the only version of which legs from the habit of do similar manipulations with chicken eggs. Not the only thing, but what is beautiful, eh? In general, I will not remember others - it's not for that here we gathered here to talk to the historical conversations, let's go better. Hands will be scratching something to smoke!

Nowadays, with the advent of all kinds of food dyes, special paints for Easter eggs and even different stickers, few people think about the origins and traditions, and in vain. To paint eggs with natural substances is not only more beautiful, more pleasant and more natural, but also more useful - about it, I think, and not worth talking.

Eggs of Eggs Low Slayer

The first stage is common to all methods: Preparation of Bahar. Onion husk (do not ask me how much - much, the more, the better; I just fill the bucket, in which I will cook eggs, to the top, while even slightly tamper) lay out in a saucepan and pour water. We leave for half an hour, after which we put on fire, bring to a boil and cook for 10-20 minutes. We are waiting for a complete cooling - the decoction is ready. You can lower this stage and immediately lay eggs into a tank with water and husk, however, the intensity of the color of colored eggs will not be so rich and deep. In addition, if you are fundamental to smooth perfect coloring, the decoction must be strain - and cook eggs already in the "clean" liquid without a onion husk.

But now we turn directly to the "laidtage" - more precisely, to the methods of decorating eggs painted with onion husks.

Decoration of eggs painted onion husks

1. Thread once, thread two - the band turned out!

A bright egg, smooth and so ... Present. Imagine - you keep in his hands, consider a deep color, which gave him the husk, and simply "swim" with thoughts for each path, which the threads on the glossy surface were drawn.

What to do. To get a striped pattern on eggs, it is necessary to wrap over every egg in thick threads before boiling.

Draw patterns - part of the eggs can be made with strictly horizontal stripes, part - with vertical, more than several, give the chaotic drawings, and the other are symbolic crosses. It will be great!

2. Lace draw a fairy tale, magic, love and affection.

An amazing miracle is an egg with bizarre patterns, gentle curls, incredible loops and tails. You hold in your hands - and literally your hands feel all his depth, some sacred knowledge hiding inside. Very mysterious painten turns!

Create delicious lace patterns is not quite difficult. Believe me, even much easier than this can seem. The most important thing is to choose a suitable lace, the drawing of which will be quite small and simultaneously suitable for pleasantly look at the surface of the egg.

What to do. Tightly turn the eggs into one layer of lace, fix it (threads or node) and cook. Remove the lace and admire.

By the way, in addition to lace tissues, you can take something easier. The main thing is a textured. Well, for example, the eggs wrapped in front of cooking in a plastic mesh, which sells fruit.

3. Birch leaf, parsley sheet. And on the eggs - curls.

Incredibly delicate drawings! However, Nature itself creates not surprisingly - they are created by nature ... Creates, investing his love and care, fantasy and skill.

Get prints of leaves on eggs - simpler simple.

What to do. Water droplets will help you temporarily "stick" the necessary parts of the plants on the egg, after which it will only remain tightly wrapped the entire composition with a piece of kapron tights (gauze as an option), fix the cloth (node, threads) and cook everything together.

After you remove everything more unnecessary from the egg, there will remain amazing beauty of the outline of plants on the shell - perhaps even with a light greenish tint (birch, for example, staining eggs well).

4. Draw home, flowers, snowflakes - Give an egg picture.

Unusual rogulins. Surreal lines. Cubism and geometry, symbolism and classical forms, - sometimes it seems to me that paintings can be viewed infinitely, plunging into their philosophy and finding more and more new faces of being.

What to do. Cut out from the tape everything that is fashionable to cut down: droplets, hearts, and so on, sculpt on the egg, and so cook, then carefully we grip.

Of course, it is difficult to imagine that the adult man of puffs over sticky tape is tangible, trying to cut hearts, squares and droplets from a rather uncomfortable material, however, who said that it is necessary to soak adults? Attract free children's work - Believe me, the baby is also grateful to you will be more grateful for the opportunity to choke a daddy isolate, decorate the eggs at your discretion, and then give my grandmother to the Easter to paint your own manufacture.

For the sake of fairness, I must say that a couple of times we came across a tape, which, after baptizing with the onion husk, we jerked along with the shell, but there were still more positive experiments. And beautiful experiences, notice!

5. DAC-RESARD, YES DAC-RESSE - Everyone in Easter eggs is glad!

It seems that on the infinite brown-red stroit, the eggs of frost draws its patterns with the finest brush, takes the bizarre stools, creates incredible compositions. Magically!

What to do. Nothing special. Just draw a needle.

Of course, complex drawings and incredible ornaments can be left to artists, and you are armed with a ready-made painted and needle at this time and write everything: "Christ is risen!" Well, or "Pet from Luda for a long memory!" Not difficult and very exciting.

6. Marble loops, marble covered. Marble Eggs Embrella washed!

A completely incredible feeling - to keep the usual chicken egg in the hands and drive away from themselves about his stone strength. Absolutely special pleasure - to consider "marble" folds on the egg and try not to "get lost" in their labyrinths. By the way, it is easier to obtain such a pattern.

What to do. Sleeply sick onion husk, wrap it with raw eggs, wrap marley tightly and cook.

After removing "clothes", you will find wonderful "marble" painten.

7. Point, point, comma - A sharp sharp!

Meditative egg: you look at him, look, looking for something ... and here it would be like - Bingo! But no, it's not ... and again give up the game "Find then I don't know what" ...

Want to remember?

What to do. Lower the egg into the water, and then immediately in a plate with dry rice - cutting as it should. Crupins stick up, you immediately wrap the gauze all this joy (or by the trap) and boil in a bowl.

When you remove the fabric and remove the rice, you will find cute specks.

If the soul requires experiments, it is also possible to get a pattern with pea - you can get large points. By the way, a very interesting drawing gives olives, chopped with rings - I recommend to try.

8. Flowers grow on egg - in Easter, wonders are simple!

Tenderness. Thinking. Translucency…
On the painted flowers look especially beautiful.

Like all the previous, easy and accessible.

What to do. Raw eggs, climb small flowers to them (and not only "flat" violets or lilac, but also bulk laggy chrysanthemums, chamomile), wrap in several layers of Capron, tightly tying. Cook.

Remove the "fur coat", admire the fruit of their efforts.

9. Dark, light, dark, light ... Eggs to Easter Runs!

Looking at these paintings, it is difficult to restrain the exclamation of delight: they are unusual, strict, solemn.

The process of their creation, of course, is somewhat more complicated all the above, but the result is more interesting, you will agree.

What to do. The most important thing is to choose the dishes in which you can steadily put the right amount of eggs on the "ass". Chose and put? Fill the onion decoction about a third and put cooking. Following 5 minutes after the boil, we fill the third part of the ragland and cook again - 3 minutes. We pour off "with your head", wegan a couple more minutes and drain the decoction.

It turns out wonderful bands - from the dark to light. (In the photo - experiments with other paints).

10. Girls painted wrote, waxed thought ...

In art, writing painten with wax there is something ancient, mysterious and mystical. And the egg, to which the Writing with wax touched, is special: incredibly warm, soulful, correct.

Perhaps this method is the most time-consuming of all described, but eggs that are obtained as a result of a small witchcraft cost efforts.

What to do. On the cheese cold egg, painted with a onion husk in a barely noticeable beige color, hot wax draw patterns and write wishes, after which they lay eggs in a very concentrated decoction and leave there for several hours. After the eggs are painted in a rich brown, the napkin is intensely remove the wax.

Several tips for those who want to learn to paint Easter eggs as a real master of their case:

• long husk - the thing is quite stable, however, some hostesses after cooking additionally soaked eggs in vinegar precisely for greater durability of paint;
• the eggs for cooking must be certainly room temperature: Of course, this will not exclude possible cracking of the shell during cooking, however, will significantly reduce the likelihood of such troubles;
• so that the eggs are dazzling and looked on a plate festively and solemnly, lubricate ready-made handsome thinners, the finest layer of any vegetable oil - the eye will not turn the eye!;
• sometimes you can and rummage - dare in the onion husk a couple of dozen quail eggs: you can not even imagine small eggs in a cute calf in red and brown color!

Staining with other natural dyes

In addition to the onion husk, you can use other natural dyes to dye eggs to Easter. They are a lot, most importantly - choose "your own" and approach it with a soul.

1. Very intense saturated blue color give blueberry berries - enough to break the eggs in a saturated blueberry brave.

2. Contrary to the tips common in the network, I can say from my own experience that neither the beet juice nor the cherry juice is stained. However, if the light challenge shade of gray-beige color is considered color, then color. But not nice.

3. Brown color is easy to get using natural coffee - you need to break the eggs about 10 minutes in very strong coffee, then fasten the result by vinegar.

4. In the same way, the principle can be painted eggs and black tea - there will be another shade of brown.

5. But the carcade, alas, gives an absolutely not interesting shade of gray.

6. Thanks to the Turmeric, you can get a saturated yellow color (3 art. L. High-quality turmeric on 0.5 liters of water will give a good golden shade).

7. The closest friend of Kurkuma is Curry Powder.

8. Birch leaves give eggs a gentle yellow shade.

9. The juice of a red cabbage in the company with vinegar paint eggs into blue color.

10. Pomegranate peel during boiling gives the eggs brown.

Easter spiritual to you and bright sharp!

For guests and loved ones. Mobile eggs and cooking crafts and gifts for children and adults. And how many different options for the preparation of all this magnificence surrounds us. Head spin. Let's bring a little order in this diversity. Today I want to streamline information, as well as tell you about how to paint eggs onion husks. This is one of the simplest and cheapest methods of festive staining of eggs. But at the same time it does not become the most banal and uninteresting. But let's go about everything in order.

Simple staining of eggs onion husk

The easiest way to paint eggs onion husks without additional drawings and ornaments. Smooth saturated red-brown shade makes eggs in elegant and beautiful. Something like it looks like a rich red tree, and if grabbing eggs with vegetable oil, then also glitters as the treasure covered with varnish.

The onion husks are natural natural product, so there is not even a shadow of doubt that the eggs painted in this way will not bring any harm or adults or children.

Long husk for staining can be both from a conventional white bow and red. Collect husks from several bulbs of any variety and set aside in advance. To do this, you can start a special container in the kitchen, and every time you cook something with a bow, to fold the husk in it.

From my own experience I can say that not so many bulbs will need. 5-6 pieces enough to prepare a small saucepan of the brave.

Another big plus of such staining is that eggs can be painted and white and brown. We all familiarize the search situation in stores of good white eggs. Brown now also fit.

The final color of the already painted egg, of course it will be different. White testicles are obtained more reddish, like a bulb in the husk, and brown more red and dark. You can buy both types of eggs and arrange a beautiful variety.

Stages Painting:

1. Remove the eggs from the refrigerator, pour them with water room temperature and let it stand for half an hour. Water will float all dirt and inscriptions with stamps that are applied to many eggs in the factory. What did not dissolve, pull the sponge. You can use food soda.

2. In the old pan, pour onion husk. The pan is likely to be painted, so choose dishes, which is not a pity or to which nothing sticks.

3. Fill the husk with water and put boiled on the stove. After boiling, boil the husk for about 20 minutes. She will get dark and her color will be all more intense with every minute. Then turn off the stove and leave the husk to cool naturally.

4. When the decoction of the husk will cool, it's time to take staining in it eggs. There are two possible ways. The first: to catch out of the brave all the husks or strain and leave only the liquid into which the egg laying. Then the color of eggs will be uniform. Second: put eggs right in the husk and cook with it together. In this case, small divorces can remain, light marriege from the most.

5. Place the eggs in the decoction of the onion husk and turn on the plate again. Pour into the decoction of 1-2 teaspoons of salt so that the eggs do not flow, if they still burst. Eggs in the brave must boil and boil 10-15 minutes. After that, turn off the stove again.

6. Give eggs in the brave to lie down until it cools. After that, they can be removed. Lay out eggs on a paper towel or napkins and dry them.

7. Painted eggs will be matte and if you want an elegant shine, then take a cotton circle or a piece of gauze and soda eggs with vegetable oil.

So you can paint the eggs onion husks without any patterns and drawings, but if you want to add openings or pictures, then in front of the cooking stage, small manipulations should be done.

Pattern on eggs from leaves, colors and twigs

The entire process of painting will pass in the same way as I described above. Only now before laying eggs into a ready-made decoction, we must prepare them.

For patterns, leaves and twigs will be needed, you can take small flowers. Not everyone at this time of the year, flowers bloomed, and there are no herbs. But here is the usual garden greens can be found in any store. Dill, parsley, kinza, rosemary, etaragon - fragrant herbs with different in shape and size sheets are perfectly suitable. You need only a few twigs and leaves. You can dial a little different so that all the testicles are with an individual unique pattern.

You will also need a thin cape or mesh to attach leaves to the egg. It is clear that they themselves will not be able to be able to be boiling in a saucepan of water. Sliced \u200b\u200bpiece of elastic tights is perfect. And threads or elastic, so that the Capron is tightly tied to the egg.

Attach leafles to the egg and wrap it with a trap. Tightly tie the Capron so that it firmly faced the egg and kept the leaf on the spot. In this form, put an egg in a decoction of onion husk. Similarly, wrap the rest of the eggs, put them in a saucepan and cook for 10-15 minutes in the brave.

After that cool the eggs and remove the heading along with the leaves. At the place where they were glued, their bright imprint will remain.

It is important to note that white eggs are painted.

How to paint eggs onion husks and rice

The way of similar color is very similar to the previous one. For him, you will need a fine mesh tissue, for example, from kapron socks, and raw rice.

Clean dry egg moisten, then put in a cup with rice and cut in it from all sides to rice stick. Now wrap the egg together with rice into the mesh, firmly tie and send to the saucepan with a decoction to boil up to complete staining. So that the egg is painted, it should bother at least 10 minutes. After that cool the egg and remove the mesh with rice from it. For an egg beautifully glitter, it is lubricated with vegetable oil a very thin layer.

Beautiful way to paint eggs onion husks and threads (rubber bands)

Eggs with strips and patterns can be made using threads or thin rubberry. Before staining, get a thick thread on the egg in different directions. You can hide a thread on a spiral or two threads perpendicular to each other. It turns out beautiful patterns.

You can also take fine rubberries and wrap them around the egg. Only not too tight so that the egg is not cracked from pressure, it is still raw and fragile before cooking.

Threads can be taken different thickness and colors, just as beautifully it turns out if you take a thick twine or braided cord, they will give their own interesting pattern on the egg. Show fantasy. For example, you can weigh from thick threads a pigtail and wind egg, then the "imprint" of this pigtum will be very original.

Marble eggs with a onion husk

Another way to beautifully paint eggs onion husks is the so-called "marble eggs". They are called so for the original uneven divorces, as on marble, which are artificially using onion scales and dyes.

I suggest to see a very good visual video about how to make such painting at home.

Only the most lazy do not paint eggs on the eve of Easter! This tradition fell in love with adults and children. And in stores are now sold everything that will help make this process easier and more exciting - and stickers, and dyes, and special films that stick as the second shell. But as an experiment, you can always contact the grandmother's methods. For example, make beautiful patterns on the eggshell can be made with onion husks and several primary items. How to paint eggs in the onion husk with a pattern, we will tell in our material.

Preparation for staining

So, before starting to staining eggs, it is necessary to collect onion husks. Previously, our grandmothers and great-grandmothers, after the new year, put a special basket in the kitchen, where the entire onion husk was discharged. Therefore, before Easter, they did not have a question where to score a lot of husk.

But if there are no husks, do not be upset. You can get out of the position as follows: We buy two or three kilograms of the bow and remove only the top husks from each bulb. If you remove completely, it will quickly spoil and become unsuitable in food.

In addition to husk, of course, eggs will be needed. If you want to make staining of eggs onion husks with a pattern, then choose those with a white shell in the store. For conventional staining, any eggs will fit the husks, but in order to get beautiful patterns, you need white eggs.

To make the eggs not only to the decoration of the table, but also a delicious treat, you need to choose fresh. If there is an opportunity, buy rustic eggs - they are larger and tastier.

As for the preparation for the staining procedure, it also includes cleansing eggs from dirt on the shell. They need to rinse well and dry. If this was done in advance and eggs are in the refrigerator, they must be pulled out and leave at least thirty minutes so that they become room temperature. And one more secret: so that the color is saturated, you need to moisten a cloth in vinegar and wipe the eggs.

Normal staining of eggs with a husk

Those who want to paint eggs for Easter somehow especially, you must first learn the most simple staining. A dozen eggs will need about two shells of husks, a liter of water, a spoon of salt and some vegetable oil with a cotton disk.

First we rinse the husk under the water, then send it to the saucepan and fill with a liter of water. When the liquid boils, we reduce a little fire and cook the husk from fifteen to thirty minutes. The longer the husk will boil, the stronger the shade of a natural dye.

Then we lower the eggs into the saucepan and cook them in the husk about fifteen - twenty minutes. After that, we send them to cold water, and then take the rut, wet in vegetable oil and rub the main Easter characters so that they acquire a beautiful shine. The painting of eggs onion husks with a pattern is almost more complicated, but it all depends on the selected pattern.

Patterns - leaflets

The vegetable pattern on eggs looks very beautiful, and it is quite simple to make it. This will require ordinary greens, such as kinza, parsley or basil.

Then we can look onion husks, as in the first version, and while it is brewed, we prepare the eggs. We take an egg, wet the place where the pattern will be water, then apply a leaf there. If necessary, we apply several leaves. Then we take either kapron socks, or gauze and wind the egg so that the leaf does not disappear during cooking.

After that we put eggs into the pan and cook twenty minutes.

Then just remove the robe from the egg and enjoy beauty.

Patterns - stripes

The following way assumes that the shells will be strips. They can be horizontal, vertical, or chaotic - here who likes more.

On the process, everything is also - first cook the husk, then lower the egg and cook another twenty minutes. But before throwing eggs, they need to wrap them well with rubber bands. You can use rubber bands that are usually used for cash bills. If there is no gum, you can wind eggs with threads, but then it is better to take white cotton cotton.

Eggs in Krapinka

To hang kids, you can make eggs in the speck. To do this, it is also necessary to first peel the onion husk and prepare eggs. After that, a little rice should be poured into a small bowl. Welcome egg in water, then omit in fig. If you want a rareral speck, you can attach rice with my fingers. Then the egg gently put on a piece of gauze and wake well.

Throw eggs in the husk, cook for about twenty minutes, then cut the gauze. Eggs in Krapinka are ready.

Openwork patterns

Another simple and spectacular way to paint - use a piece of tulle with patterns or lace fabric. So that the eggs look elegant, it is enough to wind them into a piece of fabric with a pattern and omit in a saucepan, where the lyric husks are boiled. In twenty minutes they need to be placed under cold water, and then remove the fabric. If you want to add brilliance, then we lubricate the eggs with a car wash into the oil.

Abstraction

In fact, there is another way how beautiful to paint eggs with a onion husk. To do this, first the husks need to finely cut, then cut a little white paper into the same container. Then you need to take eggs, cutting them into the husk with paper and wrap in a gauze or a kapron stocking.

To make the drawing turned out to be clearer, you need to get tightly tight. After that, the eggs need to be put into water, bring to a boil and cook thirty-five minutes.

It turns out very beautiful abstraction on the husk. And to cook "marble" eggs, a little greenflaw should be pouring into a saucepan. But not everyone approve of the painting of eggs in this medical center.

Actually paint eggs for Easter with drawings and patterns – complete pleasure. In addition, the whole family can take part in the process, and then the eating festive treat will be more fun!

The painting of Easter eggs onion husks is one of the old and most simple ways.In addition to simple staining, such eggs can be additionally decorated - apply a beautiful vegetable pattern. Of course it will take time, but the result is worth it - a common painted egg with the help of simple manipulations turns into a real Easter souvenir - mysterious dyes. Here I will also talk about what kind of natural dyes, except onion husks, can be used for coloring. I have a council for those who have absolutely no time to do this - a modern and simplified way to decorate Easter eggs with a thermal film.

Easter recipes:

Eggs can be wrapped with threads or lace - to get beautiful stripes and luxury.
Eggs wrapped in front of cooking in a plastic mesh in which fruit is sold.

Very interesting drawing give olives without seeds, chopped with rings.
Boil in the onion husk a couple of dozen quail eggs, along with chicken eggs they will look very comfortable.

The process of coloring eggs onion husks:

Cut the piping stocking into squares (10x10), so that an egg placed in it. Moisten the sheet with water and stick to the raw egg shell face. Scatter edges. Tightly cover the egg with a piece of stock (tie a thread. Cut the extra stocking. In the same way, prepare all the eggs to paint.

At the bottom of the pans, put onion husks - 2-3 handstones. Top to put eggs. Cover the eggs husks (2-3 handstone). The more husks, the darker there will be the color of the finished painted egg. Fill everything with cold water, put a saucepan on the fire and bring the content to boil. Boil the eggs for 10-15 minutes, after which you get them with a spoon from the pan, put in a bowl and fill with cold water. Cut and remove stocking and grass with eggs. Dry the eggs with a towel and wipe your woven disk, slightly moistened in vegetable oil - it will give them shine.

The easiest modern way to decorate Easter eggs - Wear a thermal film on them. The main thing is not to be mistaken with the size of the egg, because The film does not wear a big egg on a very big egg, and it will be collected on the edges on the edges. Cut the plug along the cut line, put it on boiled egg, Put the egg in a spoon and lower in boiling water. As soon as the film covers a tight egg, remove. Ready!

In my opinion, this method is only two disadvantages - absolutely not developing fantasy, kills the creative component of an important pre-trial action and the egg is then very seriously cleaned. However, it is really simple, quickly and harmless.
Council: do not use the thermal film with the image of the Lick of the Savior, the Virgin or Saints, because in a couple of days, together with the shell, everything will go to the garbage. Treat with reverence to sacred images and choose a thermal film with vegetable, floral ornament or with the ornament of traditional Russian painting.

Painted eggs The carriers of faith in Christ always served as a symbol of the Resurrection of Jesus, and with him and cleansing in the name of a new best life. Giving each other Easter eggs, Christians confess the faith in Sunday from the dead. If the Resurrection of Christ had not happened, then, as teaches the apostle Paul, the new faith would have no reason and prices, it would be in vain. Orthodox symbolism of the Easter egg with its roots goes in the millennium traditions of religions of many peoples of the world. At the same time, in Orthodoxy, it receives a significant semantic addition: easter egg - this is A symbol of bodily recreation in Christ, a symbol of the joy of resurrection from the dead, victory of life over death.

With a bright holiday Easter! Christ is risen! Truly risen!

In contact with

Easter table is not only cakes and cottage cheese Easter, sausage and buynene. Traditionally, on Easter, we still paint eggs - this is a very old custom, with your interesting story. Some - literally in all the colors of the rainbow, others - just stick bright stickers. You can call me a conservative, but I want to show you how to paint eggs in the onion husk. This method is closest to me, as they used my grandmother. It turns out that we apply a natural dye that has each in the house. Eggs are a beautiful brownish color, as if velvety (the color of the color depends on the amount of husk, about it is somewhat later).
The process of painting of Easter eggs onion husks is very simple, but still there is its own nuances in it so that they do not burst. I will be happy to share with you all that I know about him.

Ingredients:

- 1 big handful of lows of husk (in a free state occupies a volume of 1.5 liters);
- 7 chicken eggs;
- 1 l of water.

How to paint eggs onion husks:

If you want to paint eggs for Easter with a husk, then you will need to bother in advance about the source material. I begin to collect husks about a month before the bright Christ, for this period, I just get the right amount. Cleaning onions, dry husks remove and carefully move. If there are sections with a retained inner layer - emit them. The selected dry husks take carefully in a plastic bag, and we pull out everything that I am collected on the eve of Easter, we start to sacred.

The leek husks are very light, the poet immediately will not drown. Slightly "impose" her hand or with a spoon so that it is covered with water.

We put the saucepan on fire, bring to a boil and cook on low heat 12-15 minutes. Already after 5-6 minutes after the start of boiling, the decoction will acquire a beautiful brown color. (But in order for the color to be stable, the cooking will not stop.)

Then the decoction is filtering through a colander into another pan (in which we will cook eggs). And we assume cool - if you immediately start painting eggs and lower them in hot water, they can burst.

While the lows of onion husks (this is already, in fact, the paint) cools, prepare the eggs.
My eggs are carefully. We wash the dirt, pouring particles. Gently brushed with color marks (eggs purchased in the store).

In the cooled decoction of onion husks gently lower the eggs. Watch that the eggs do not hit each other - otherwise, during cooking, they can burst in this place.
Eggs should be completely covered with liquid so that the painting occur evenly. If suddenly part of the eggs protrudes from the liquid, the fraction of some cold water or put the eggs into another pan, where there would be less empty space between them, they would be more tightly adjacent to each other - then the fluids to fully cover them are less.
