\"easter<\/a><\/p>\n

coloring easter eggs with natural colors is easier and much more fun than i ever thought. this year was the first time that we did not use those color tablets or powder you can buy to color your eggs and i tell you i will never need to buy them again.<\/p>\n

i remember that i got some naturally colored eggs from my best friend some years ago. i really thought: gosh it is beautiful, but she is crazy! today i know, she is not. you have to put only the greens, vegetables or fruits in a pan with water, simmer each of them for half an hour and cook your easter eggs for about 7 minutes in the colored waters.<\/p>\n

we tried brown onions this year, which we put in the cooking water with their skin. the result was amazing. using white eggs they become a kind of yellow and using brown eggs they become more yellow-brown.<\/p>\n

to get a light green on white eggs we used some stinging nettles but you can also use spinach.<\/p>\n

we still had some red cabbage and i read somewhere, that it will work as well, but the result is not as convincing as the other ones. maybe it is a better idea to juice the cabbage and to color the eggs in that juice. i think i will keep a beet to get red eggs next year.<\/p>\n

and to get that really, really beautiful grey one (my favorite) we used some frozen blueberries.<\/p>\n

so enjoy coloring your eggs and please do not miss to share your experience.<\/p>\n

happy easter holidays!<\/p>\n

********************<\/p>\n

ostereier mit nat\u00fcrlich farben f\u00e4rben ist viele einfacher und macht unglaublich viel mehr spass als ich jemals dachte. es ist das erste jahr, dass wir nicht diese farbtabletten oder pulver kaufen, die es gibt und ich sage euch, nie wieder kaufe ich das zeug.<\/p>\n

ich erinnere mich, dass ich vor jahren mal eier mit nat\u00fcrlichen farben von meiner besten freundin bekommen habe. ich habe gedacht, oh gott ist das sch\u00f6n, aber ist sie verr\u00fcckt! heute wei\u00df ich, sie ist nicht verr\u00fcckt. man muss blo\u00df das gr\u00fcnzeug, gem\u00fcse oder die fr\u00fcchte jeweils in einen topf mit wasser geben, eine halbe stunde k\u00f6cheln und dann die eier 7 minuten kochen.<\/p>\n

wir haben dieses jahr braune zwiebeln ausprobiert, die wir mit schale und wie sie sind in den topf gegeben haben. das ergebnis war gro\u00dfartig. auf wei\u00dfen eiern hat das ein sch\u00f6nes helles gelb gegeben und auf brauen eiern eine kr\u00e4ftiges gelb-braun.<\/p>\n

f\u00fcr ein helles gr\u00fcn auf wei\u00dfen eiern haben wir brennnesseln benutzt. stattdessen funktioniert auch spinat.<\/p>\n

au\u00dferdem hatten wir noch rotkohl und ich \u00a0habe irgendwo gelesen, das w\u00fcrde gehen. das ergebnis \u00fcberzeugt leide reicht so. vielleicht sollte man den rotkohl entsaften und die eier dann in dem saft f\u00e4rben. ich denke n\u00e4chstes jahr hebe ich eine rote beete auf und probiere es damit.<\/p>\n

und um dieses wundersch\u00f6ne grau (mein favorit) zu bekommen, habe wir gefrorene heidelbeeren verwendet.<\/p>\n

also, viel spass beim ostereier f\u00e4rben und nicht vergessen, eure erfahrungen mit mir zu teilen.<\/p>\n
