Could you please tell us more about this method?
You must use silk ties, no other type. there is a tag on the ties that say they are silk. I hard boil my eggs first, they when they are cool or even the next day you
!. cut the large end of the tit off and remove the lining.
2. wrap the egg with the right side of the tie toward the eggs, tie off with string or twist tie.
3. then wrap the egg in a piece of wiate fabric, I used cheesecloth and tie off again.
4. put in water with a tablespoon of vinegar, that is just ready to boil and leave for about 20 minutes. take out and lay on an old towel to cool. unwrap and oh, what a pretty sight.
