Terrific New eBook On How To Broil Delicious Foods

I worked in my parents’ restaurant until I left home for college. As the older kid in the family, I waited on tables and served tea and coffee to customers. Working in a restaurant, I noticed many customers automatically add salt and pepper to food without sampling. Since I drink tea without any ingredients, I thought it was unusual to see customers add salt and pepper to thier tea. Now I believe it’s a great idea to cook with tea.

Here is an old Chinese recipe you can make with tea. It is a delicious appetizer that is easy to make. Boil 6 eggs in water. After the eggs are boiled, reduce heat and simmer it for 10 minutes. In a teapot, use 4 servings of black tea and 3 cups of hot water. Brew the tea as usual and discard the tea leaves. Add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce to the tea, even salt and pepper if you’d like. When the eggs are cooked and cooled off, crack the egg shell by rolling them on the counter. Do not peel the egg shells yet. Continue to simmer the eggs for 10 minutes. Let the eggs cool off and refrigerated for 8 hours or overnight. Eggs can now be serve, hot or cold.

You can use a Deviled Egg recipe with the egg yolks or try this recipe using crab meat.  It is another variation to adding flavors to egg yolk. Cut eggs in halves with a wet knife. In an empty bowl, mix together the egg yolks, 6 ounces of crab meat and 6 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Add some diced pickled ginger, ½ teaspoon of rice wine vinegar, and salt and pepper to flavor it. Add a teaspoon of the crab meat on the egg halves. Garnish with chives or cilantro.

We can cook these marbleized eggs around Easter. As a matter of fact, my daughter came up with the idea. We used the same technique to color Easter Eggs. By using food coloring, we made many marbleized eggs during Easter Holiday.
