As Easter approaches, it's essential to decorate eggs safely. Eggs can last three to five weeks after purchase, and older eggs are easier to peel. Boiling eggs thoroughly reduces the risk of foodborne illnesses. After boiling, cool eggs properly and ensure they remain safe by keeping them at or below 4.4°C. Decorate with food-safe dyes and handle eggs carefully to avoid contamination. For egg hunts, consider using plastic eggs if they will be at room temperature for over two hours.
