• Combine the turmeric with 1 1/2 cups water in a medium pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat; gently simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a heatproof container.

• Combine the cabbage with 2 1/2 cups water in a medium pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat; gently simmer for 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then strain half into a heatproof container and stir in the baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Strain the remaining liquid into a heatproof container and stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Add 6 egg whites to each container and let soak until the desired color (yellow, pink, lilac and teal), up to 1 hour. Drain the egg whites on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.

Transfer the yolk mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip. Pipe swirly dollops of the mixture into each dyed white.
