How to Dye Dry Pasta

My son’s teacher called me one afternoon and wanted to know if I could dye pasta for the class.  She had planned for them to make necklaces but was running out of time and needed some help.  She had no clue I was a blogger and things like this were so much fun for me to do and share about. I accepted the job of dying pasta and looked forward to trying it out.  I have dyed cooked noodles before, dry rice, dry beans, but never dry noodles.  I could not wait to try it out.

What we did:

I poured vinegar and food coloring in bowls.  We then added the noodles.  My son mixed them up.  I then sat them to the side for about 10 minutes.

I tried to make sure the noodles were covered well by the vinegar and food coloring.  Once they were through sitting, I drained them in a strainer.

I had trays lined with paper towels.  I poured the noodles over onto them.  I left them there to dry for a day and a half.

I just LOVED the fun colored noodles.  The only bad part was having to give them back to the school, lol.  I am glad the  kids will get to make fun necklaces.  However, I now must make more for us at home.  We could have a lot of fun with these dyed dry pasta.
