Ingredients

12 large size chicken eggs

4 silk tie

Cheesecloth

Thread

Scissor

Large pot

4 tbsp white vinegar

 

Step #1

Wrap the egg with tie tightly, do it with the pattern inward (touching the egg). One tie wraps for three eggs.

 

Step #2

Wrap again with cheesecloth. Tie up tight with thread to prevent tie moves when soaking.

 

Step #3

Put in the egg into the pan. Add water to sink the eggs whole.

 

Step #4

Add 4 tbsp white vinegar and start the stove with big flame. When the water starts boiling, turn the flame down to little flame. Let it boils for 20 minutes.

 

Step #5

Take out the eggs. Leave the eggs wrapped in cheesecloth to cooling well. You can also put them on the dishwasher dryer.

 

Step #6

Remove the cheesecloth.

 

Step #7

Unwrap the tie and check it out. The pattern is now printed on the egg!

 

Time: 45 to 60 minutes (exclude drying time)

Tips:

• Cheesecloth can be replaced by nylon stocking if you can’t find any.
• You can also use blouse and other 100% silk clothing, it doesn’t have to be tie.
