[Edit this paragraph] Production method
Personally, I think it's best to use black tea to make tea eggs, because black tea is fragrant but not bitter, and its color is bright. The boiled eggs are fragrant, uniform in color and excellent in appearance. Green tea is somewhat bitter, boiled eggs will be astringent, and green tea is cold, which is not suitable for people with stomach problems, infirmities and pregnant women. There is no need to use particularly good black tea for black tea. Black tea bags like Lipton's and Chezai's are very easy to use. Just take out the tea bags and throw them away after cooking. It won't make the pot full of tea residue, and it's easy to master the dosage.
