I like tea eggs very much. They are yellowish when they are peeled off. You can clearly see the brown lines stained by the tea. The depth and shallowness are like old jade, naturally chapped into beautiful patterns and blooming wantonly.

Spiced Tea Egg

1. Clean the eggs, add cold water to the pot, boil on low heat and cook for 4 minutes, turn off the heat and simmer for 2 minutes

2. Pour the tea leaves into boiling water first, let it stand for 5 seconds, drain the water, and wrap the cleaned tea leaves with gauze. Prepare star anise, cinnamon, pepper, cloves, grass fruit, cumin, bay leaves, and put them in a spice box

3. Take out the boiled eggs, pour out the water for the boiled eggs, tap the cracks with a stainless steel spoon, put them in the pot again, and put the tea bag and spice box at the same time

4. Add appropriate amount of salt, add boiling water until the eggs are completely covered, turn to a low heat and cook for about 30 minutes after the high heat is boiled, turn off the heat and soak for more than 10 hours, the longer the time, the more delicious
