Instructions

For the Ramen Eggs

  • Fill a pot with enough water to cover eggs, and bring to boil. Gently lower cold eggs into boiling water. Simmer 6 minutes for runny yolks, 7 minutes for slightly runny yolks, or 8 minutes for soft yolks.
  • Meanwhile, fill large bowl with ice water. When eggs are ready, transfer to ice bath to stop cooking. Soak 5 minutes or until cool to touch. Peel away shell and slice in half lengthwise. Set aside. If marinating, peel away shell and follow next step before slicing.
  • For optional marinade, whisk together warm water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and Swerve in a medium bowl. Transfer peeled whole eggs into mixture. Marinate at least 30 minutes, up to 12 hours.
