Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs

Marinade

Instructions
 

  • Bring your eggs to room temperature by running them under warm water. Then in a pot of hot boiling water, gently lower your eggs one by one.
  • Boil them for 6 minutes over high heat for soft-boiled eggs. For hard boiled eggs, boil them for 10 minutes.
  • In the meantime, prepare an ice bath for your eggs. Once the eggs are cooked, remove and transfer to ice bath. Crack and peel your eggs. Place them in a small resealable container.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together your marinade ingredients in a small pot. Bring it to boil and then simmer for 5 minutes uncovered. Allow this broth to cool down until it's cool to touch to prevent your eggs from cooking further.
  • Pour the cool broth over your eggs. Seal and store in the fridge to marinate for 6 hours for best flavour.
  • When ready to serve, slice them in half and enjoy! Note: You can also use the leftover broth to make more eggs.
