Soy Marinated Egg Yolks

Ingredients

  • 9 pasteurized egg yolks (use more or less as desired)
  • ½ cup light soy sauce, or enough to fully cover the yolks
  • ¼ cup garlic-flavored soy sauce (optional)
  • ¼ cup sake
  • 2 tbsp mirin

Instructions

  1. Carefully separate the yolks from the egg whites.
  2. Place the yolks in a shallow container, keeping them spaced apart.
  3. Pour in the light soy sauce, garlic soy sauce (if using), sake, and mirin, adding enough liquid to fully submerge the yolks.
  4. Marinate for at least 4 hours for a creamy, custard-like texture. If you prefer firmer, more jammy yolks, continue marinating longer.
  5. Once they reach your desired texture, gently remove and enjoy over warm rice, toast, or however you like!
