Ingredients

12 Eggs

6 cloves Garlic, minced

1 Jalapeno chopped, or red pepper flake

4 Green Onions, chopped (save some for topping)

1 tbsp Sesame Seeds

1 cup Soy Sauce or Tamari

½ cup Honey or white sugar

1 tbsp Sesame Oil

½ cup Water

Furikake

Siracha Mayo

Directions

Make Soft Boiled Eggs: Put a pot of water to boil, just enough water to cover all the eggs. Once the water is boiling, carefully add in the eggs and let them cook for 6 minutes. After 6 minutes, remove eggs and let it rest in a bowl of ice water for at least 10 minutes. Longer boil time will have a harder yolk, 6-7 minutes creates the perfect jammy yolk.

Make and marinate the Eggs: In a container, add garlic, jalepeno, green onion, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and water. Reserve some green onions for topping. Mix till everything is combined. Add in the peeled eggs and making sure the eggs are covered in the marinade (if not fully covered, flip eggs after a couple hours). Let the eggs rest in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Serve: Serve with a bowl of rice, slice in half and put on top. Add kimchi, thinly sliced red cabbage, slaw mix or any other toppings you like! Top with Furikake, green onions and siracha mayo.
