Start by placing your eggs in a pot, filling it with water until the eggs are covered.

Bring the water to a rolling boil.

Once boiling, cover the pot and remove it from heat, allowing the eggs to sit for about 10-12 minutes, depending on your desired doneness.

For slightly softer yolks, reduce the time to about 8-9 minutes.

Once cooked, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to halt the cooking process. Leave them in the ice water for at least 5 minutes.

Gently tap the eggs on a hard surface and peel them under running water to make the process easier.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, minced garlic, and sesame oil until the sugar has dissolved.

Place the peeled eggs in a container and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated.

Seal the container and refrigerate. Let them marinate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight for enhanced flavors.

When you’re ready to serve, slice the eggs in half, sprinkle with sliced green onions, and dive in!
