Description

Hard-boiled eggs are steeped in sweet soy sauce with onion and sesame oil in this easy teriyaki eggs recipe for a unique variation on pickled eggs.

Ingredients

6 eggs
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
6 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

Directions

1 Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, cover, and let stand in hot water for about 10 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel. Place eggs in a quart-size Mason jar.
2 Combine soy sauce, water, sugar, minced onion, and sesame oil in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Cool briefly, about 5 minutes, then pour over eggs in the jar.
3 Refrigerate eggs until flavors are absorbed, at least 6 hours.
