Easter is coming and it’s time to think about painting eggs. It is known that white eggs are better at capturing paint. Colors become brighter and more saturated, and this gives more festive mood. However, we cannot always find the white eggs we need on the market.
Why are some eggs white and others brown?
One of the classic rules is genetic. Generally speaking, brown hens lay brown eggs and white hens lay white eggs. The glands that determine the color of the plumage of chickens also determine the color of the eggs that the hens then lay.
How to whiten brown eggs if you don’t have protein?
You need:
– Water;
– pot;
– Vinegar;
– Brown eggs;
– The spoon;
– Small bowl;
Place the eggs in the skillet. Pour water and vinegar in equal parts. It will be easier if you pour a glass of water and a glass of vinegar. Pour until you cover the eggs. Turn on the fire and bring to a boil.
During the cooking process, a brown foam will form, which must be removed with a spoon.
When the water boils, boil the eggs for 10 minutes. When they are ready, soak them in cold water for a few minutes. Rinse each egg under running water, rubbing with a brush or dishwashing sponge. This will help in the whitening process.
