About Tea leaf egg
Tea Leaf Eggs, also known as Chinese Tea Eggs, are a popular snack and street food originating from Chinese cuisine. They are made by boiling eggs and then simmering them in a mixture of black tea, soy sauce, spices, and aromatics like star anise, cinnamon, and cloves. This process gives the eggs their distinctive marbled appearance and rich, savory flavor. High in protein and essential nutrients like vitamin B12 and selenium, Tea Leaf Eggs offer a satisfying and portable source of energy. However, their sodium content can be high due to soy sauce, so moderation may be necessary for those monitoring salt intake. The spices used also contain antioxidants and potential anti-inflammatory properties, contributing to overall health benefits. These eggs are often enjoyed as a flavorful addition to meals or a convenient snack, combining cultural heritage with balanced nutrition.
