Did you know that a hard-boiled egg is safe to eat for you to seven days after it's been cooked?* I had no idea that they lasted that long until I started researching some ideas for what leftover hard-boiled eggs could be used for since I shared my post last Monday about how to colour eggs naturally.** According to this post, a hard-boiled egg will last for up to seven days in the fridge as long as the shell is still on it. If you peel it before popping it in the fridge then it's only good for up to five days. **Hard boiling and poaching eggs have shown to be the … [Read more...]

How to colour eggs naturally….
We're getting to that time of year again where the schools are challenging children to decorate eggs creatively so today, I thought I'd share some ideas on how you can colour eggs naturally.I've seen a few egg colouring kits appearing in the shops over the last few weeks and although I haven't bought one, it looks like they're just tablets of colour that you add to the water when you're boiling your eggs. That got me thinking that there must be some natural colourants that you can use instead - just like when we had a go at dying fabrics with food a while ago.I've done lots … [Read more...]
