Step One: How to boil soft & hard boiled eggs 반숙 + 완숙 달걀 삶는 법

Take your eggs out of the fridge and bring to room temperature. Let the eggs rest on your kitchen counter for about 15 minutes. TIP: If you add cold eggs directly from the fridge to the pot, there is a great chance that the eggs will crack and/or explode.

  • Place the eggs in a pot and fill with cold water, about 1" above the eggs.

  • Add the following ingredients:

2 Tablespoon 큰술 Salt 소금

2 Tablespoon 큰술 Vinegar 식초

  • Set the stove heat to HIGH. Using a spatula, slowly rotate the eggs in the pot for about good 30 seconds. This slow circulating-motion of the eggs in the water is to bring the yolk to the center of the egg.

  • Once you see the water start to boil, put the lid on. Lower the stove heat to MEDIUM. Let it cook for 5 minutes (soft-boiled) or 8 minutes (hard-boiled)

  • Quickly transfer the boiled eggs to an ice bath and let the eggs rest in the ice bath for 15 minutes.

  • Take the egg and gently tap it on a flat surface around the widest center for the egg. (DO NOT tap the egg on an edge. Doing so will break or damage the white part of the egg.) Place the cracked egg back in the ice bath. Placing the cracked egg back in the water will make it easier to peel the shell, as the water will get in between the shell and white part of the egg. Once all the eggs have been gently cracked, then start peeling the shells.


Step Two: Soy sauce broth 양념장 만들기

Add the following ingredients into a pot:

5 Cup 컵 (1.2 liters) Water 물

1/4 Cup 컵 Jin-Soy Sauce/진간장

(Substitution: All-Purpose Soy Sauce/진간장 없다면 양조간장)

2 Tablespoon 큰술 Korean cooking wine/mirin 미림

2 Tablespoon 큰술 Brown Sugar/흑설탕

4 Garlic cloves 마늘

2 Pieces (half hand size) Dashima/dried sea-kelp 다시마

1 Pinch Black pepper

Set the stove to HIGH heat. Once the liquid start boiling, place the lid and let it cook in HIGH heat for 15 minutes


While the broth is cooking, start prepping the vegetables for the soy sauce broth. Add the cut vegetables into a heat proof container with a lid.

  • Follow the cutting method as shown in the above video recipe @ 05:44 CLICK HERE)

  • 1/4 Medium White Onion/중간 크기 양파

  • 2 Scallions 쪽파

  • 1 Red chilli pepper 홍고추

Step Three: Soft-boiled eggs in chilled soy sauce broth 반숙 달걀장 + 숙성 시간

Once the soy sauce broth is done, pour the broth into the container with the minced vegetables. Make sure to bring this hot broth to room temperature. Adding your soft-boiled egg to this hot broth will cook the eggs and turn them into hard-boiled eggs.


Once the broth comes to room temperature, add the soft-boiled eggs to the container. Add a generous sprinkling of roasted sesame seeds. Cover with the lid and store in the fridge for a minimum of 4-6 hours OR 24 - 48 hours for the tastiest option.


Soy sauce fermented egg yolk 노른자장 + 숙성 시간

Once the soy sauce broth mixed with vegetable come to room temperature, take 1/2 cup of the broth and strain it separate the liquid from the vegetables.

Separate the yolk from the white (as shown in the above video recipe @ 10:10 CLICK HERE).

Add the egg yolks to a small container with a lid. Pour the soy sauce broth (minus the vegetables) in the container and put the lid. (The egg yolk does not need to be fully covered in the soy sauce broth. About 2/3 coverage of the yolk in the soy sauce broth is ideal). Store in the fridge for a minimum of 4-6 hours OR 24 - 48 hours for the tastiest option.


How to make warm soy sauce braised eggs 따뜻한 달걀장조림 만들기

In a medium size pot, add the same ingredients to make the soy sauce broth, as listed above. Then add the boiled eggs (peeled) to the pot. Set the stove heat to HIGH. Once the liquid start boiling, place the lid, and let it cook on high heat for 15 minutes. Quickly transfer the eggs and broth to a serving bowl. Add a generous sprinkling of roasted sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sesame oil.


How long does this last in the fridge?

For the soy sauce fermented yolk, I would not let it go longer than 2 days. Best enjoyed immediately after 48 hours of fermenting in the fridge.


For the soy sauce eggs, I would finish eating the eggs within 7 days.

This looks amazing, however, your video says 1/2 cup of soy sauce, but this printed recipe calls for 1/4 cup. Which is the correct one to use? Thank you!
