About Red eggs

Red eggs, often associated with Chinese and Southeast Asian traditions, are boiled eggs dyed red to symbolize good fortune, happiness, and celebration, particularly during birthdays or baby showers. The vibrant red coloration is achieved using edible dye and doesn’t alter the egg’s nutritional profile. Packed with high-quality protein and essential vitamins like B2 and B12, these eggs support muscle health and energy metabolism. Eggs are also a good source of selenium and choline, benefiting brain function and immunity. However, they contain cholesterol, so moderation is advised for individuals monitoring their heart health. Typically served alongside sweets or savory dishes, red eggs remain rooted in their cultural significance while offering the wholesome qualities of a classic egg.
