Eggs are a very common ingredient in our daily lives, and there are eggs in my refrigerator all year round. We were both used to having eggs every day for breakfast, and boiled eggs, fried eggs, egg custard, etc. often appeared on my breakfast table. Eggs have high nutritional value, eggs are rich in protein, the protein content of eggs is about twelve percent, and the protein contained in eggs is easily absorbed and digested by the human body. The yolk of an egg is rich in vitamins and minerals, which are beneficial to promote human metabolism.
Many people like to eat brine eggs, in each breakfast restaurant there will be brine eggs, the aroma of brine eggs can be smelled from a long distance. Many people will think that the brine eggs to soak for a day, too waste of time, some friends feel that the brine eggs to be their own brine material is very troublesome, not willing to do their own brine eggs. It just so happens that these two days I have been making brine eggs, no need to soak for a day, boil for 30 minutes to eat salty and flavorful brine eggs, ingredients and methods are very simple.
Let's take a look at how to make the perfect brine egg easily and quickly.
【Marinated eggs】
【Ingredients】10 eggs, 2 star anise, 1 small piece of cinnamon,
2 fragrant leaves, a pinch of peppercorns, 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce,
Zebra craft beer 1 bottle
【Directions】
The first step is to prepare the ingredients for the brine eggs, which will have the taste of the brine when made of star anise and cinnamon, of course, you can add more brine on the basis of these two things. To shorten the time it takes to marinate eggs, add beer or liquor. Usually, the brine eggs should be soaked, and the brine penetrates into the eggs to make the eggs taste. If you add highly liquor or do not add water and use beer as a liquid, then the brine eggs are easy to taste.
I used a bottle of zebra craft brew to make brine eggs, zebra craft brew using malt, oats, hops, yeast, orange peel, cloves, cinnamon meat, water brewing national style craft brew, the taste is thick and mellow, rich in layers. It can be drunk directly or used for cooking.
Step 2 The eggs are cleaned and the eggs and water are placed in the pot of boiling.
Step 3 After boiling, cook for about 8 minutes and cook the eggs.
Step 4 The boiled eggs are scooped up and put into cold water, and the eggs are soaked in cold water to be easily shelled.
Step 5 Put a bottle of beer, star anise, cinnamon, coriander leaves, peppercorns and soy sauce in a cooking pot and bring to a boil over high heat.
Step 6 After the brine juice is boiled, add the shelled eggs, boil and turn to slow simmering, and the eggs are boiled for 30 minutes. If you don't have a picture of this kind of pot, you can use the boiling pot, turn it into a low-heat brine egg, and cook it for about 30 minutes.

The first here to emphasize the point, brine eggs to shorten the time, do not use water, all with beer instead, brine eggs color is tempting, the aroma is irresistible. If you want to save the cost of brine eggs, you can replace beer with water and white wine. Because alcohol can change the spatial structure of proteins and produce denaturation reactions, it can make brine eggs in a short period of time.
Second, after the eggs are cooked, they are put in cold water to make it easier to peel the eggshell.
The eggs on the third day are not large, if you encounter a relatively large egg, you should appropriately increase the time of brine eggs.
