Valentine's Day brings with it many unnecessary frills. There are plastic ornaments in seemingly every store, cheap packs of "I choo-choo-choose you" cards (a favorite in kindergarten classrooms), and buckets and buckets of chalky candy... But Anna the Red, "bento and plush designer," has come up with a touchingly ordinary way to show someone you care.
Just rubber-band a hard-boiled egg in between a piece of cardboard with a chopstick wedged in the top, cut it in half, and you've got an egg yolk shaped like a heart. Or a kindof lopsided, wabi-sabi heart, anyway.
We blithely pop heart-shaped chocolates and candy into our mouths, but eating a hard-boiled egg heart? That ish is real.
You can check out the instructions at Anna the Red.
Test Kitchen Says: O. M. G. Why not make these Deviled Eggs with heart-shaped eggs to really show how much you care?
