2924.0. "Egg dye migration problem" by SMURF::SMURF::BINDER (Simplicitas gratia simplicitatis) Thu Feb 21 1991 09:14

    When making Greek Trinity bread, is there some magical way I can keep
    the egg dye on the egg instead of having it insinuate its way into the
    surrounding bread?

Traditionally, the bread has only red eggs in it anyway (at least, that's the way Mrs. Copolopolus baked it and she was authentic to me!), so beet juice would work very well. Let them dry well, and then form and bake the bread. PS. just for the record, I spelled that name phonetically -- I'd bet BIG money it isn't the correct spelling. 8^}
