Recipe

• 1 place the eggs in a sauce pan. cover with enough water so that eggs are submerged and bring the water to boil.
• 2 as soon as the water comes to boil, turn off the heat and cover the pan. let it sit 8 to 9 minutes. if you like less cooked eggs such as in ramen style eggs, let it sit 6 minutes only for softer yolk.
• 3 plunge the eggs in cold water and crack the shell all around and soak in cold water for 5 minutes or so (this makes it easier to peel). shell the eggs under running water. i find peeling from the the pointed side of the egg first makes it easier to peel.
• 4 combine vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil in a small pan and heat to boiling. as soon as it boils, remove from heat and let it cool a bit. place the eggs in a large plastic bag or a plastic container and pour the marinade in and marinate for at least 24 hours, moving the eggs around from time to time.
