Sure:

1. Start emacs -Q
2. Type M-x eww RET https://gnu.org RET
   (any HTTPS site with a valid certificate will do)
3. Notice the green color of the page's title in the header line that
   indicates that the peer's certificate is valid
   (You can also check C-h v header-line-format RET to validate that the
   eww-valid-certificate face is applied to the title portion of the
   header line)
4. Now type R to execute eww-readable
5. Note that the color of page's title in the header line changed (it is no longer green)
