Korean Mayak Eggs

This is my new go-to meal and snack. It's so simple to make but the flavor will blow you away. If you like soft boiled eggs and ramen, you will LOVE this recipe.

Step 1

Bring a pot of water to boil. Add salt and vinegar to the pot. (This will help you peel the eggs later). Boil the eggs for 6 minutes then place them all in a bowl of water with ice. (This will help the eggs stop cooking and give you the soft-boiled creamy yolk later on.) Let them cool completely in the ice water.

Step 2

While they are cooling, mix the soy sauce, water, sugar, scallions, cilantro, sesame seeds, garlic, and chili pepper flakes in a medium bowl. Mix until the sugar dissolves. (I use a container with a lid, less to clean up.)

Step 3

Once the eggs are completely cool, carefully peel each one and place in the soy sauce mixture. Top with a lid and let sit in the fridge for at least 5 hours or overnight. It will last 5-7 days in the fridge.

Step 4

Serve with warm rice, extra scallions, and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil. Mayak eggs would also be fire on a bowl of ramen!

Step 5

Enjoy!!
