Step-by-step cooking of a pig from an egg for the New Year 2019, a recipe with a photo:
1. Before you start making crafts, make a blank for the pig's body. To do this, dip the eggs in ice water and, after boiling the water, cook hard-boiled for 8-9 minutes. Then transfer them to ice water to clean well and leave to cool.
Meanwhile, peel the raw beets and cut into small pieces. Place them in a deep bowl and cover with warm water.
2. Peel the chilled eggs and put them in the beetroot broth. Leave them on for half an hour for the eggs to take on a light pink hue. If you want the eggs to acquire a more intense pink color, then squeeze the juice from the fresh beets into which you place the eggs.
3. Cut the bottom of the eggs with a knife so that the eggs do not roll to the side, but stand firmly on the plate. Egg yolk can be extracted from the protein, and instead stuff the egg with any filling.
4. Place the eggs on the board, cut side down.
5. In front and on top of the egg, use a knife to make cuts for the "ears".
6. From the scraps of egg whites, make "ears" in a triangular shape, which you insert into the holes made on the egg.
7. Also make a "patch" out of the scraps, in which make holes with a straw cocktail straw.
8. Make eyes for the pig from the buds of the carnation.
9. Using mayonnaise, glue the Piglet to the piglet. From the remaining scraps, make a "tail", which is inserted into the cut made with a knife on the egg from the back. Serve a finished pig from an egg for the New Year 2019 to the table as an independent treat or use to decorate New Year's dishes.
