Foods like tea eggs can be eaten for a few days at a time, and the nutrients will not increase with the increase of nitrite as the preservation time increases. The boiled egg is peeled off its shell and glowing with a gentle light under the light. The broken lines are looming. When you take a bite, the egg white is tender and the yolk is mellow, which makes people really unlikable.
