Soho Eggs Recipes

EASY SOY SAUCE EGGS (SHOYU TAMAGO)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Peel the shells from the boiled eggs. Rinse with water to remove any tiny shell fragments. Set aside.
• In a small pot, bring the soy sauce to a boil. Turn off the heat and add the boiled, peeled eggs. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon (so that the eggs don't become nicked), gently roll the eggs around, coating the eggs with the soy sauce mixture.
• Continue to steep the eggs with soy sauce until they reach your desired color or saltiness-1 to 2 minutes for a lightly salted flavor, 5 minutes or longer for well-salted flavor.
• Serve and enjoy.

SOY EGGS (SHOYU TAMAGO)

Steps:

• Place eggs in a pot. Cover with about 1 inch water. Remove eggs and stir vinegar into the water. Bring to a boil. Gently place eggs back in. Cover and cook for 5 minutes to soft-boil. Cook 3 minutes more for hard-boiled eggs. Prepare an ice bath in the meantime.
• Remove heat heat and immediately place eggs in the ice bath. Peel eggs carefully.
• Combine soy sauce, ponzu sauce, mirin, scallions, garlic, brown sugar, sesame oil, togarashi, and ginger in a container such as a jar. Mix well to ensure the sugar dissolves and the garlic breaks up.
• Place eggs in the mixture and seal. Marinate for 1 day. Eggs keep for 3 or 4 days after.

JAPANESE SOHO COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Pour the vodka, lemonade, blue curacao, and lychee liqueur into a cocktail shaker over ice. Cover, and shake until the outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into a chilled martini glass, and garnish with a lemon slice to serve.

CHEF JOHN'S SCOTCH EGGS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a saucepan with 1/2-inch water; bring to a boil. Carefully place cold eggs into saucepan, cover the saucepan with a lid, reduce heat to medium-high, and cook until eggs yolks are soft, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and pour cold water over eggs to halt the cooking process. Cool eggs to room temperature in cold water; peel and dry eggs on paper towels.
• Mix sausage, mustard, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl. Shape into 6 equal-size balls.
• Lay a piece of plastic wrap on a flat work surface. Place 1 ball of sausage mixture into the center of the plastic wrap, fold the plastic wrap over sausage, and flatten into an 1/8-inch thick oval shape. Pull plastic wrap back and place 1 egg in the center of the sausage. Pick up plastic wrap, moisten fingertips, and press sausage around egg to cover completely, sealing sausage around egg. Repeat with remaining eggs and sausage.
• Place bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Pour flour into another shallow bowl. Beat remaining 2 eggs in another shallow bowl.
• Gently press eggs into flour to coat; shake off excess flour. Dip eggs into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded eggs onto a plate.
• Working in batches, cook eggs in the preheated oil until golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool, at least 5 minutes.

HOMEMADE SCOTCH EGGS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the pork sausage and Worcestershire sauce. Combine the flour, salt and pepper; mix into the sausage.
• Divide the sausage into four equal parts. Mold each part around one of the hard-cooked eggs, rolling between your hands to shape. Place the beaten egg and bread crumbs into separate dishes. Dip the balls into the egg, then roll in the bread crumbs until coated. Shake off any excess.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C), or until a cube of bread dropped into the oil turns brown in 1 minute. Lower the eggs carefully into the hot oil. Fry for 5 minutes, or until deep golden brown.

EGGS IN HEAVEN

Steps:

• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Allow the temperature to reach 350 degrees F.
• Place a heavy-bottomed saucepan over the direct-heat side of the grill. Add the butter and allow it to melt. Add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook until beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the peppers and cook until slightly softened, 2 more minutes. Add the flour and stir to coat the vegetables. Stir in a third of the milk at a time, smoothing out any lumps, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 30 minutes, allowing the raw flour flavor to cook out.
• Whisk in the Cheddar and cream cheese and bring back to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the ham and nutmeg. Crack the eggs into the sauce, leaving spacing in between them. Move the pan to the indirect heat side of the grill and cover the grill with a lid. Cook until the eggs are set, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle all over with the chili flakes and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325*F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or grease them lightly with vegetable oil.
• Melt the 8 ounces of semisweet and unsweetened chocolate and the butter in the top of a double boiler placed over simmering water. Allow it to cool slightly.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together into a small bowl and set aside.
• Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat eggs, vanilla, and espresso powder in a medium bowl until they are mixed together, about 10 seconds.
• Add the sugar to the egg mixture and blend it all until thick, about 1 minute. Scrape bowl.
• Add the melted chocolate and blend 1 minute more. Now scrape the bowl again.
• Add the flour mixture on low speed and mix until blended, 10 seconds. Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts by hand. Drop the dough by generously rounded tbsl. about 2" apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake the cookies until they rise slightly and form a thin crust, about 13 minutes. Immediately move the cookies from the cookie sheets to a wire rack to cool. Enjoy!
