Ingredients
- 4 eggs ( room temperature)
- 2 tbs soy sauce
- 2 tbs sugar
- 1 tbs miso
- 1 tbs mirin
- 2 tsp honey
- 1/4 tsp Tobanjyan Chinese broad bean chilli paste *5
- 1 clove garlic crushed
Instructions
Soft Boiled Eggs
- Bring water to boil in a large saucepan.
- Add the eggs one by one gently into the boiling water with a ladle.
- Set a timer for 7-8 minutes. *1
- After boiling for 7-8 minutes, remove the eggs from the boiling water into a bowl of icy cold water. *2
- Peel off the shells and set aside.
Marinade
- Combine all sauce ingredients except miso in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Turn the heat off just before the sauce boils. Do not completely bring the sauce to boil.
- Add miso paste and dissolve it. *3
- Cool the sauce down and marinate the eggs in a ziplock bag and refrigerate for about 5 hours at least. *4
Notes
- *1 If you like runny soft boiled egg, set the timer for 7 minutes. If you like a little firmer, set the timer for 8 minutes.
- *2 This step prevents the eggs being cooked further with residual heat.
- *3 Miso flavour will be lost if the sauce is boiled. So add miso after the heat is turned off.
- *4 To marinade evenly, make sure the sauce is covering the eggs. See the post above how to remove air out of the ziplock bag.
- *5 Tobanjyan is Chinese broad bean chilli paste. You can find chilli paste labeled 豆板醬 at any Asian grocery stores. Using a ziplock bag is easier and better to marinade the eggs evenly.
