Good afternoon and welcome to the Good Plate's Kitchen.
0:08
Today I want to talk to you about naturally colored Easter eggs in the Instant Pot.
0:14
Yes, that's right, the Instant Pot.
0:16
So this is really quick and real easy.
0:20
And the best part is you have both of the ingredients in your house already.
0:25
Okay. First, we're going to talk about the ingredients.
0:27
The ingredients are eggs, of course. And onion
0:30
skins that you can get from
0:33
And your grocery for free or just take out of your pantry.
0:40
And cranberry black tea and cheesecloth.
0:43
You want to use a fine cheesecloth so that everything stays together.
0:47
Now this is really, really simple.
0:49
And let's talk about why we're going to use
0:51
the particular ingredients that we're using.
0:54
Onion skins make a beautiful marble look.
0:57
I learned this when I first moved to Glendale from the lovely shopkeeper who
1:02
happened to have some eggs on her counter at
1:04
Easter time. And I was like, how do you make those?
1:07
And she said, oh, it's very simple.
1:09
You just take the onion skins and wrap the eggs in them and cook them.
1:15
So then I was like, wait a minute, I want to make them not so brown.
1:19
So I used cranberry black tea.
1:24
And the cranberry, as you know, all you need to do is spill cranberry
1:28
juice on anything white and boy does stain!
1:33
So we were using cranberry black tea and the
1:38
eggs and the onion skins at the cheesecloth.
1:42
And that's it. It's very simple.
1:44
Cut a piece of cheesecloth.
1:46
A little large about twice or three times larger than the egg.
1:52
And you put the onion skin around the egg tightly.
1:59
And then put the cheesecloth around that onion
2:04
Put it in your instant pot with the tea.
2:12
Put the water. Put it on for five minutes.
2:15
Let it do natural release for about five minutes.
2:19
And then do quick release for the rest if it hasn't done it in five minutes.
2:24
And then all you have to do is when the eggs
2:26
are cooling enough, just remove the cheesecloth.
2:30
And you can take a little bit of of neutral oil and
2:33
rub it on the eggs to make them look shiny and pretty.
2:37
When you're done looking at them and admiring them, it's very, very simple.
2:41
Just use them for Deviled Eggs.
2:45
We have a great recipe for Deviled Eggs on The Good Plate.
2:48
Or you could use it for the sandwich or something like that.
2:52
And I want to thank you and wish you a wonderful, wonderful holiday season.
2:58
And we'll see you next time on The Good Plate.
3:02
Remember, ever forward, ever flavorful, yum, yum.
