In Taiwanese convenience stores, you will see a heap of tea eggs in an electric rice cooker on the counter.

The flavor coming off the tea eggs always make many consumers' mouth water, and tea eggs also help the dealers earn a great money.

First, slightly crack the crust of boiled egg and then stew and cook it with tea-leaf , soy sauce, Japanese pepper and proper salt for several hours.

Thus, the marinade can infiltrate into eggs, haunting eaters' palate.

7-11 even use Assam black tea as part of the marinade so the egg tastes of black tea.

On top of that, it just cost one-forth dollars.

The affordable price make it become a popular food here.
