  4. Carefully remove each egg with a tongs and place it in a bowl with ice water.

  5. Let the eggs cool for 5 mintues.

  6. Add the black food coloring gel to the ziploc bag. Then add in the hard boiled eggs.

Recipe Notes

When you peel the egg shells off, you might want to use gloves or rinse them in water first as the food coloring can dye your hands temporarily.
