Servings

Instructions

  1. Combine the water and baking soda in a pot and bring it to a boil. The water level should be deep enough to cover all the eggs. Once the water is boiling, add the eggs and cook for 7 minutes.
  2. In a separate pan, combine all the ingredients for the Seasoning Sauce. Bring the sauce to a boil, then remove it from the heat and let it cool.
  3. When the eggs are done cooking, plunge them into ice water and let them sit for 5 minutes. Carefully peel off the shells while the eggs are still in the water, ensuring you remove the membrane covering the egg white.
  4. In a container or bag, add the seasoning sauce and the eggs. Gently rotate the eggs to ensure they’re evenly coated in the sauce, then let them stand overnight or for 1 to 2 days in the fridge. When ready to serve, slice the eggs in half and enjoy them with ramen or as a snack.

Notes

  • I used room temperature eggs. The eggs are best after 2 days in the fridge. Baking soda helps with the peeling of the eggs so your ramen eggs will be pretty and nice!
