Perfect Ramen (Soft Boiled) Egg Recipe

Ingredients 

3 eggs (MUST be at room temp)
1 cup ice
1 cup water
1/3 cup soy sauce
1.5 tbsp mirin (or you can substitute honey)
1 tbsp Soba sauce (optional)

Directions:
First, bring a pot of water to boil. Once it's boiling, put three room temperature eggs into the water. Set the timer for exactly 6 minutes (or 5:45 seconds to be safe), and let the eggs boil in the water with the lid off stirring occasionally for even cooking. While the eggs are cooking, prepare your ice water bath. Combine the ice and water into a bowl, and once the timer is off, transfer the eggs into the ice bath. Once the eggs have completely cooled, peel off the shell. Transfer the peeled eggs into a ziploc bag containing the marinade (soy sauce, mirin, and soba sauce).Squeeze all of the air out of the bag. Place a rubber band or chip bag clip as close as you can to the egg to allow the eggs to be completely submerged in the marinade, and place in fridge for 3-5 days. The longer it's in the fridge, the better the product! When you want to eat it, just take it out and cut it in half with a knife!

Happy Eating!

"Put the eggs in boiling water make sure the water is not too hot" 😳😳

It has been 3 days since I made it and I have to say that it was so good. I am not good at cooking, but it took me 10 attempts to have one good egg to peel without breaking. That one egg, in the end, was worth it

Who else standing in their kitchen about to make the most fire ramen of their life 😫

Edit: 3-5 days??! 😳

Eating time : *3-5 Seconds*

Put em in boiling water but make sure the water's not too hot? 😂 This girl just got me a lot more confused... 🤦‍♂️

[torquettalk]

I recently fell in love with this kind of cooking. I could also just eat these eggs for snacks even if I won't use them for ramen.

[juleskandola]

If you dip your eggs quickly in then out of the hot water first it will stop them cracking with the heat

[Oddhint]

I wanted to make some but I don’t wanna wait 3-5 days lmao

[imdry]

JUST DID THIS FIRST TRY AND IM 14 I FEEL SO PROUD

I’ve learned to prepare 6 or so of these eggs in advance. 2 days will work, however if you add more soy sauce, no water it will be salty. The less salt, more liquid for days allows time to control HOW SEASONED your eggs 🥚 become.

I went OMG at the same exact time as she did. Holy. Most videos tell you to store overnight but 5 days looks way perfect!

THANK YOU SO MUCH I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR GOOD TIPS TO BOIL EGGS BUT NO ONE, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, HAS MENTIONED THAT THE EGGS SHOULD BE ROOM TEMPERATURE THANK YOU

[ajayalva]

I used to do 6 - 6:30. And ended up with a bit of overcooked yolk.
1. 5:45 was a good tip.
2. Immersing immediately in Ice is necessary, not just room temp/cool running tap water.

Ah thank you Kirby for making this video. I love marinated eggs from my favourite ramen place but had no idea how to make them.

Hey Kirby! Thank you so much for the helpful recepie! Happy holidays!

[CastledSmile]

I don’t have enough time to marinate but I’ll make some more eggs rn so when I make ramen the eggs are marinated to put in thank you so much!

[OniricChef]

Try adding a bit of sake and boiling the sauce a bit before marinating. Cuts the marinating time to just 1 day! :)
