So just for fun, I took a hard-boiled egg, gently poke my finger into the shell all over, making lots of little spiderwebby cracks, and dunk it into a bowl of blueberry juice. Let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes, then peeled away the shell. The result was like a cross between tie-dye and spiderwebs, although not as nice as Martha Stewart's came out (maybe cuz I didn't use organically homegrown blueberries from my 100-acre mansion in Maine). The picture really doesn't show the effect very well I'm afraid. Guess you gotta see it in person...
Then following a generic recipe for devilled eggs, (adding green food coloring), I stuffed the egg 1/2's with the mashed yolks, and set it yolk-side down on a little piece of lettuce. Topped it off with some black sesame seeds, a tiny sprig of dill, and a little salt.
Eat the egg, lettuce and all. I wanted to add little red onion legs, but my onion was suspiciously hairy.
