Boiled eggs with tea water
Boiling eggs with tea water is a very dangerous combination because eggs and tea are two incompatible foods. Tea leaves contain a large amount of tannic acid, which, when combined with the protein in eggs, forms a tannic acid protein compound that slows down the activity of peristalsis, prolongs the time of stool accumulation in the intestines. If you eat too much, you may face constipation, fatigue, and even poisoning.
In addition to the habit of boiling eggs with tea, eating eggs with tea is also not recommended.
Boiling eggs in the pot for too long
When boiling eggs, the main thing you need to pay attention to is that the boiling time should not exceed 15-20 minutes. Many housewives believe that eggs should be left in the pot for a long time to be fully cooked and to completely eliminate bacteria clinging to the eggshells.
But in fact, this is completely wrong because when bacteria are completely destroyed, iron and sulfur in the eggs will also combine with each other, thereby reducing the nutrients in the eggs and affecting your health.
When the eggs are overcooked, the inside of the yolks will have gray streaks, be smelly of sulfur, and the egg whites will be rubbery.
You should only put the eggs in the pot, add cold water, boil. Then take the pot off the heat, cover it, and leave it for 10 minutes for soft-boiled eggs, and for 15 minutes for medium-boiled eggs.

This action causes the eggs to lose many nutrients, so it is best to add enough water to cover the eggs.
