I tried making these last night for my Shanghai-born and bred husband-to-be as a surprise. He came into the kitchen while I was doing it and knew EXACTLY what I was cooking from the smell alone. He said they were very good and reminded him of home. Then he asked me to make them for his students (he teaches Chinese at an American University in the west) too!

It doesn't take that long to make, he just overdone everything. You can just cook the sauce separate while the egg is cooking. Then just cold rinse the egg, crack the eggs, and place them in the sauce and let it soak for an hour. This way of cooking doesn't create that weird green yolk coating.

@Aziiio 7 жыл бұрын

Stet Tan True. And if you keep the eggs longer in the sauce and let it marinate, there will be even more flavour in the eggs. i would prefer to keep it in the sauce longer for even more flavour. Also, crack the eggs even more, let more of that delicious flavour seep into the egg :p

It seems like you could add any variety of things to the broth to get different tastes. Whoever invented tea eggs must have been a working-class genius.

I have made tea eggs several times. Both my husband and daughter love when I make them And each time I make it slightly different. I use every time the Chinese 5 Spice that my husband bought a bottle of. I will say that it is better to use quality tea over the cheap stuff. And about one tea bag per egg at least. Thanks for the idea of sugar. The recipe I found didn't use sugar. Thinking of using honey when I make them next time. As for the garlic, I mince it when I use it. I'm also thinking of a pinch or two of red peppers(scale 7 Scoville) next time as well. I boil them for two hours. Then I turn off the heat and let them soak for a day or two.

I'll probably leave the rest overnight and try it tomorrow morning.

For anyone wondering - red tea is not what he is referring to. he's using a black tea. "RED TEA" is rooibos, which is NOT made from the tea plant, they're actually a south african pine needle. Tea eggs are made from teas based on the camilla sinesis, which is black, green, pu-erh, and oolong.

+Michaël Claveau Green Tea Ramen or Rice Soup is actually quite nice! The bitterness of the Tea soaks into the Noddle's/Rice during boiling and keeps the flavor, so adding sweet-flavored vegetables is a good flavor pairing.

If you don't like the dryness of a hard, hard-boiled egg, you can do this the "japanese way" ; Egg : soft-boiled (around 6 mins in boiled water), immediately put them in water with ice. It will cease the cooking. For the broth, you follow Mike's recipe, you boiled it. Then you let it cool down. (Ambiant temperature) You want it to boil for quite long so the sugar/salt is well incorporated and the tea, garlic and spices are well infused. Do it covered or all the water would evaporate, you need just the enough amount to cover all your eggs in a cooking bag. Then you take a plastic cooking bag, you pour your broth and place your eggs in it. You place the whole in the fridge for 24hours. And finally, after 24 hours, you can eat the egg as they are, or even better, eat then with ramen ! The eggs will have the nice taste of the broth and the eggs' yolk will still be 'wet' and shiny.👌

Black tea and red tea aren't the same. Black tea is the leaves from the tea plant (camellia sinensis) that have been oxidized for a long time to make the tea very strong and when steeped, the tea is a dark colour, hence the name. Black tea, green tea, oolong tea, and white tea actually are all made from the same plant, it's just that the leaves are oxidized for different amounts of time. Red tea, on the other hand, is actually made from a completely different plant. Another name for red tea is rooiboos tea.

2 teaspoons of salt, not tablespoons. Just a little gaffe

I'm so going to try this. :) I know simple trick to peeling eggs: get out a paper towel and roll your cooked eggs over it till every inch of the shell is cracked. Then pick-out one of the ends or both and gently slide off the rest of the shell. Please note the egg still has to be lightly hot.

Best way to eat eggs . . . deviled eggs.

@SuperSaverPlaysSPG 8 жыл бұрын

now, how do i make homemade ones?

@mischellyann 8 жыл бұрын

so simple! Hard boil eggs. Cut in half length wise, scoop out the yolk and mix with mayo, mustard, whatever flavors you like and refill the eggs with the mixture. So, so good.

paprika is amazing with deviled eggs

@mischellyann 7 жыл бұрын

I always forget about the paprika because I don't normally have it in the house. My mom used to do it, though.

@sinnison23 7 жыл бұрын

Yes, paprika really sets the flavors in motion.

My fiancé from Hong Kong made this for me and my mother, it's really cool and good, he just used green tea and salt, soy sauce left it on the stove for 3 days

Boil for 20 minutes? Seems like your eggs would be over cooked.....

@candidethirtythree4324 9 жыл бұрын

Yea, that is why it was green around the yolk, forms ferrous sulfide where the yolk and white meet. But I like that sulfur smell hahaha!
