I order the seasoned eggs separately at ramen noodle shops. It's 100 yen each, which is expensive! So I thought of making it at home.

Be careful when peeling the eggs. They are very soft.
You don't need tons of marinade when you use a ziploc bag and seal the air out. Recipe by Maki Kaoru

Steps

1

Combine the ※ marked ingredients in a pot and add the kombu. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Then bring the soy sauce mixture to a boil to evaporate the alcohol. Remove the kombu, which can be eaten later. Set aside.
2

Take out the eggs from the refrigerator and using a ladle, gently drop in boiling water.
3

Cook for 6 minutes for very soft yolk and 7 minutes for slightly cooked yolk. Shock the eggs in cold water (winter) or in an ice-bath (summer) to stop cooking.
4

When cool, carefully peel the eggs and place in a ziploc bag. Pour in the soy sauce mixture and using a straw, suck out the air from the bag and seal.
5

Marinate at least for 30 minutes. They taste better when marinated overnight.
6

You can eat them as they are, but they are great as a ramen topping.
