Instructions
- Prepare the hard-boiled eggs, then peel off the shells and set them aside.
- Heat the water in a pot and bring it to a boil. Add the remaining ingredients (except the eggs) to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium and boil for about 15-20 minutes, or until the stock is reduced and infused with the aromas of the star anise, cinnamon, and spiced tea bag.
- Add the boiled eggs to the braising stock and let them steep for a few hours. You can lower the heat to a simmer if desired. For the best results, leave the eggs in the braising stock overnight to further develop the flavor.
- Dish out and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use fresh eggs for best results. Older eggs tend to peel more easily after boiling.
- To easily peel the hard boiled eggs, shock them in ice water after boiling to help loosen the shells.
- After adding the hard boiled eggs to the braising soy sauce stock, simmer gently over low heat to allow the flavors to penetrate the eggs evenly.
