　　Can tea be added when roasting mutton?

　　Some areas like to add some tea leaves when roasting mutton. The purpose is to reduce the mutton smell and make the cooked mutton taste more delicious. This approach is unscientific and will destroy the nutritional content of mutton.

　　Because mutton is rich in protein, and tea contains a lot of tannic acid. If you add tea when roasting mutton, the tannic acid in the tea will combine with the protein in the mutton to form a substance called tannic acid protein.

　　This substance has a certain astringent effect, which can weaken intestinal peristalsis in the human body, reduce the water in the stool, and easily cause constipate . Don't drink tea immediately after eating mutton. People who have the habit of drinking tea after meals should drink tea one hour after eating mutton.
