About Boiled tea egg

Boiled Tea Egg is a flavorful snack and side dish originating from Chinese cuisine. It consists of eggs that are boiled, lightly cracked, and simmered in a blend of tea, soy sauce, and spices such as star anise and cinnamon. The mixture infuses the eggs with deep, savory flavors while creating a marbled appearance on the egg whites. Tea Eggs are a good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and overall health. The spices used contain antioxidants, which may support immunity and reduce inflammation. While nutritious, the sodium content from soy sauce can be high, so moderation is recommended for individuals monitoring their salt intake. Popular for their portability and taste, Tea Eggs are a staple snack across Asia and a satisfying way to incorporate bold flavors and nutrients into your diet.
