If you prefer hard-boiled egg, simmer the soft egg in the flavoring liquid for another ten minutes. (Refer to step 3 below).<\/li><li>When time is up, transfer the eggs into cold water to stop cooking immediately.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Placing the egg in ice water serves two purposes. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>First, it stops cooking immediately by lower the temperature quickly. As a result, it avoids further oxidation of the surface of the yolk, and preserve the <strong>bright color<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Secondly, rapid cooling results in contraction of the egg, causing it to detach from the shell. That&#8217;s why it is <strong>easier to peel<\/strong> eggs after soaking in cold water.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With or without shell<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After the eggs are cold, you can either remove the shell or knock the egg lightly with a metal spoon to create numerous cracks without removing the shell.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you <strong>remove the eggshell<\/strong>, the egg will contact the braising liquid fully, turning the egg to medium brown. The flavor is intense as a result of direct contact.&nbsp;<\/li><li>If you only create multiple cracks <strong>without removing the shell,<\/strong> the braising liquid will only seep through the cracks, creating a marble-like pattern on the surface after removing the shell. The flavor may be less intense, but you can counteract it by braising\/steeping the egg longer.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Constitute the flavoring liquid&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The flavoring liquid comprises of tea, soy sauce, and spices. The barebone ingredients are tea, soy sauce, sugar, cinnamon, and star anise. However, the flavor will become more wholesome if you also include several secondary components. Let&#8217;s take a look at it one by one.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The key ingredients<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tea leaves<\/strong>. Tea leaves are the most important ingredient in this recipe. You can add a tea bag to the flavoring liquid. Black tea is commonly used in this recipe, but other types of teas are suitable too. For convenience, I add a bag of English Breakfast tea to my flavoring liquid in this recipe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Soy sauce. <\/strong>The choice of soy sauce plays a vital role in the success of this recipe. The quality of soy sauce is also the biggest among all the ingredients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This recipe requires <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Chinese light soy sauce (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2MuwrVG\" target=\"_blank\">Chinese light soy sauce<\/a><\/strong> since we are preparing the Chinese style tea egg. You can add a small amount of <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"dark soy sauce (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2OCqIjc\" target=\"_blank\">dark soy sauce<\/a><\/strong> to make the eggs darker after soaking in the liquid.&nbsp; If you want to make the Japanese style soy sauce egg (not this recipe), choose the Japanese soy sauce. The flavor is slightly different from the Chinese soy sauce.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rock sugar<\/strong>. You can substitute it with regular white or brown sugar. It will not make a huge difference. I use rock sugar because I have it with me, which is the favorite type of sugar for braising in Chinese cooking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Salt<\/strong>. The amount of salt required depends on the final amount of the flavoring liquid, which in turn depends on the size of the container to store the eggs. It also depends on the saltiness of the soy sauce that you choose.&nbsp; As a general guideline, I&#8217;ll add 1g of salt to every 100ml of water in the recipe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The spices.<\/strong> The two most essential spices in this recipe are cinnamon and star anise. For simplicity, you can use a teaspoon of Chinese five-spice powder to substitute most of the spices in the recipe. I have provided this variation in the note section in the recipe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The secondary ingredients&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, in theory, you can prepare the tea egg with only tea, soy sauce, cinnamon, star anise, and season with salt and sugar. However, it is the addition of the secondary ingredients that add the wholesomeness and variation of flavor to the tea eggs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ginger<\/strong>. Add a few slices of ginger to the flavoring liquid if you want to infuse the ginger flavor into the eggs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sichuan peppercorns.<\/strong> These <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"peppercorns (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2nwLWUs\" target=\"_blank\">peppercorns<\/a> are widely used in Sichuan cuisines.l such as <a href=\"https:\/\/tasteasianfood.com\/mystaging\/dan-dan-noodles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Dan Dan noodles (opens in a new tab)\">Dan Dan noodles<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Hot and Sour Soup (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/tasteasianfood.com\/mystaging\/hot-and-sour-soup\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hot and Sour Soup<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dried chili<\/strong>. Spice up the flavoring liquid by adding one or more dried chilies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"532\" height=\"798\" src=\"https:\/\/tasteasianfood.com\/mystaging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Tea-egg-poster.jpg\" alt=\"Tea egg - How to prepare in 3 quick steps Tea egg \u8336\u53f6\u86cb (a type of soy sauce egg \u5364\u86cb ) is a popular snack among the Chinese community.

Cook and store the eggs&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two ways to cook the eggs- braise the egg and steep the egg in the flavoring liquid for an extended period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method 1: Simmer the egg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the preferred method if you want to make the <strong>marble-like eggs.<\/strong>  The heat during simmering will force the flavoring liquid to seep through the cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can create multiple cracks by knocking the egg against the tabletop or by using a spoon, but leave the <strong>shell intact<\/strong>. In this case, the flavor will only seep into the egg through the cracks and stain the egg to create a marble-like pattern. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put the eggs with the cracked shells into the boiling liquid and let it <strong>simmer for ten minutes. <\/strong>The boiling liquid expedites the infusion of the flavor into the eggs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The advantage of this method is speed but may tend to overcook the eggs and become rubbery. The heat will speed up the oxidation process, which can turn the bright yellow color of the egg yolk surface into grey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method 2: Steep the eggs for one day<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is my preferred method if you <strong>remove the shells<\/strong> of the eggs.   The eggs will pick up the color of the liquid evenly, resulting in an even brown color.&nbsp; Since the eggs are not heated up once more, the oxidation of the surface of the yolk is slowing down, resulting in a much pleasant looking egg yolk.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put the boiled egg into the flavoring liquid. Let the eggs steep in the liquid <strong>overnight <\/strong>to absorb the flavor from the liquid.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The eggs need more time to absorb the flavor by using the steeping method. Also, it is not very efficient to create a marble-like pattern even with the shell because the flavoring liquid is hared to penetrate the cracks without being heated up. You may need to steep the eggs for more than one day to get the desired deep savory flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storage&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people will recycle the flavoring liquid. I suggest you boil it once more, then let it cools and <strong>frozen<\/strong> It.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the tea eggs, it can be kept up to <strong>three days<\/strong> in the refrigerator.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"http:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"Recipe\",\"name\":\"Chinese Tea Egg\",\"author\":{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"KP Kwan\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-10-10\",\"recipeYield\":6,\"description\":\"Tea egg \\u8336\\u53f6\\u86cb is a popular snack among Chinese communities throughout the world.\",\"image\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/10\\\/Tea-egg-thumbnail-200x200.jpeg\",\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/10\\\/Tea-egg-thumbnail.jpeg\",\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/10\\\/Tea-egg-thumbnail-200x180.jpeg\"],\"recipeCategory\":\"Dessert\",\"recipeCuisine\":\"Chinese\",\"prepTime\":\"PT10M\",\"cookTime\":\"PT30M\",\"performTime\":\"PT30M\",\"totalTime\":\"PT40M\",\"recipeIngredient\":[\"10 eggs \",\"2 black tea bags\",\"2 Star anise *\",\"10 cm Cinnamon *\",\"1\\\/2 tsp Sichuan peppercorns *\",\"2 bay leaf*\",\"4 slices ginger \",\"500ml Water \",\"80 ml light soy sauce\",\"20ml dark soy sauce \",\"20 g Sugar \",\"5g salt\"],\"recipeInstructions\":[{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"Place the eggs in the water.\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Place the eggs in the water.\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/tea-egg\\\/#mv_create_161_1\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"Add a teaspoon of salt.\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Add a teaspoon of salt.\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/tea-egg\\\/#mv_create_161_2\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to simmer for another five minutes.\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Bring the water to a boil, then reduce...\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/tea-egg\\\/#mv_create_161_3\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"Transfer the eggs into ice water until it is cold.\\u00a0\",\"position\":4,\"name\":\"Transfer the eggs into ice water until it...\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/tasteasianfood.com\\\/mystaging\\\/tea-egg\\\/#mv_create_161_4\"},{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"text\":\"Place all the ingredients except the egg in a pot.
