Notes

  • Recipe Copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
  • Eggs: Use brown eggs if you have them for a more vibrant color. White eggs will also work (this is what I used)
  • Skin from 2 White Onions: Just use the skin. You can discard the onions, but you can also use them to make this Easy Pasta Sauce Recipe.
  • Coffee Grounds: You can use any coffee grounds you have on hand. They are mostly for color, though they do affect the taste a bit.
  • Many recipes call for boiling the eggs overnight, but I do not like keeping my boiler on while I’m sleeping. Instead I boiled them during the day and then kept the eggs in the fridge overnight until I was ready to eat them the next morning.
  • Serve the eggs cooled
  • It’s common to eat these eggs with hummus in Israel
  • Serve these eggs in salad, by themselves, or on sandwiches for a great treat. It’s also common in stews
  • Keep the temperature of the water at a simmer to make soft eggs
