CHINESE TEA LEAF EGGS RECIPE | ALLRECIPES
One of my favorite dishes when I head back home; it combines hard-boiled eggs with the subtle flavor of anise and the deep brown hues of black tea and soy. The cracked patterns from the broken shells make these quite attractive! I eat these sliced in quarters and chilled as a side dish, appetizer, or snack. Recipe courtesy of Mom.

Steps:
- Place the tea, cinnamon, star anise, five-spice, cloves, ginger, peppercorns, licorice, orange peel, rock sugar, dark soy sauce, and light soy sauce in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, lightly tap the hard-cooked eggs to crack the shells all over. The soy sauce will penetrate the cracks, and color the egg white.
- Place the eggs in the simmering liquid, and cook for 30 minutes, then remove from the heat, and let the eggs stand in the liquid for 2 hours off the heat. After 2 hours, drain the eggs, chill, and peel.

TEA EGGS RECIPE - SIMPLE CHINESE FOOD
Tea eggs are eggs boiled in a soup prepared with soy sauce, spices and tea. They have a saltier fragrance than boiled eggs. The thick sauce occupies the taste buds, making it super easy to eat. Suddenly I wanted to eat boiled tea eggs, and quickly stewed a small pot. The taste was great, and the smell of tea all over the room made people feel warm.
