Here’s what grandmas put in the water they boil eggs in to catch the dye and prevent cracked eggs

We know from our grandmothers and mothers that in order to boil eggs without cracking, it is a good idea to add salt and vinegar to the water – the vinegar helps to preserve the shell. Once we do this, the eggs are boiled over medium heat until they boil, and then the heat is reduced to continue boiling gently.

Some chefs advise leaving eggs from the refrigerator at room temperature before boiling to prevent them from cracking from the sudden temperature shock.

Ultimately, preparing for Easter has its small but important moments – like boiling and dyeing eggs, which brings the family together and brings even more joy to the holiday.
