Natural dyes require that most eggs be kept soaking in natural dye for hours to develop the color desired. Although coloring eggs with natural dyes can be a long process, it is fun to watch as the colors develop from these natural dyes. Because natural dyes require that most hard boiled eggs be kept soaking in natural dye for hours to develop the color desired, the eggs should not be eaten after sitting at room temperature for that length of time. It is advisable to hard boil extra eggs specifically for eating and refrigerate those eggs immediately for safe storage.
