Grandma’s five-spice egg is a well-known internet celebrity in Nanjing and a classic memory of old Nanjing people.
My grandma only sells five-spice eggs, and she has done so for decades. It is the so-called specialization in the industry, and there are few in Nanjing that can compete with it.
Spiced eggs are dark in color and have a strong flavor.
First boil the eggs and peel them, then soak the peeled eggs in hot water with old brine. The taste will make you have endless aftertaste.
Her five-spice eggs are all shelled. It is best to buy them one-handed and eat them while they are hot. The price is 2 yuan per piece.
Grandma doesn't talk much and is a very nice person.
Her five-spice eggs have been featured on a CCTV channel 18 food program.
It used to be in the alley of the Confucius Temple area, but now it's opposite the water square food court in Aqua City. The location is easy to find and the transportation is very convenient.
