Soy Sauce Eggs Recipes

SOY SAUCE EGGS

Steps:

• In a small pot, add water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and Chinese five spice powder. Bring to boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Half-fill a large pot with water and bring it to boil. Add a small pinch of salt.
• Lower the eggs into boiling water carefully using a ladle and slow down the fire immediately. Simmer for 6 minutes (for softer texture) or 7 minutes (for harder texture). Stir the eggs in first two minutes.
• Transfer the eggs out to cold water and gently peel the shells after cooled down. (If you feel it is quite hard to handle, place the eggs under small running water and peel the shells.)
• Add soft boiled eggs in the marinating sauce, soaking for overnight (12-20 hours until well salted). Transfer them out when the eggs are well salted.
• Cut lengthwise and serve with rice or noodles.

SOY SAUCE EGGS

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce (or tamari), sake, mirin and sugar in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook for 8 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Transfer to a wide-mouthed pint jar.
• Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Remove from heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 5 minutes for softer yolks or 6 minutes for firmer yolks. Drain and rinse under cold running water. Peel when cool enough to handle.
• Add the eggs to the jar; if they aren't fully submerged, add a little more soy sauce (or tamari) to cover. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.

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 SAUCE EGGS

Steps:

• 1) Medium boil eggs: bring a pot of water up to a rolling boil. Gently place 6 eggs into boiling water and set time for 7 minutes and 30 seconds. Prepare ice bath for eggs. When time goes off, use large spoon/ladle to place eggs into ice bath. Let eggs cool down for however long you need to in order to be able to peel the eggs. This can be done ahead of time.
• 2) In a medium bowl or tupperware, pour in soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, and water if you need it. Mix thoroughly.
• 3) Place peeled eggs into the marinade. The eggs should be completely submerged. If there are white bits peaking out, no worries. Those eggs will just need to be rotated through out the 2 hour time frame that we will let these sit in the soy sauce mixture.
• 4) Check on the eggs every 30-minutes to check on the coloring of the egg whites. Rotate the eggs that are sticking out a bit if you want even coloring.
• 5) Take the eggs out of the soy sauce mixture once they reach the coloring you want. In my experience, the darker the egg white, the more the soy sauce mixture has penetrated the egg. You do not want it to penetrate too much in order to maintain the integrity of your medium boil. Some recipes for soy sauce eggs will tell you do let them sit overnight, but you would need to use a very very VERY light soy sauce.
• 6) When the eggs are to your satisfaction - I like to leave mine in for two hours, rotating my eggs at the top every 30 minutes - take out the egg and serve! These are good in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can reuse the soy sauce mixture a few times as long as there are not any egg bits in it. If you need a snack or an appetizer, serve the eggs cut in half with a sprinkle of Vietnamese fried onions or the fried shallots you can get at Trader Joe's (kind of like French's Fried Onions but thinner) and some chopped scallions.

SOY SAUCE EGGS

Steps:

• Place eggs in a small saucepan of boiling water and cook for about 6 minutes. Remove eggs from the saucepan with a slotted spoon and refresh under cold running water. Peel eggs and set aside.
• Meanwhile, combine soy sauces, water, sugar and ginger in a small heavy-based saucepan and bring to the boil for 1 minute. Reduce heat, add eggs and simmer, covered with a parchment paper cover for 1 hour, turning occasionally. Remove saucepan from stove and set aside, covered, for 30 minutes, turning eggs occasionally.
• Remove eggs from the saucepan, reserving 1 tablespoon of the braising stock for garnish. Discard remaining stock.
• To serve, cut each egg in half lengthways and arrange on a platter. Spoon over reserved braising stock.

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.
