Step 2

When water reaches a boil, cover pot and remove from heat. Allow to sit for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Step 4

Peel each egg and slice in half lengthwise and remove yolks to medium bowl and set aside.

Step 5

In four cups, add 1/2 cup water to each. Stir in 10 drops of food coloring and 1 tablespoon vinegar to each cup until completely dissolved.
