- First, bring water to a boil. Cook the eggs in it for about 6 minutes until soft-boiled. Then rinse them under cold water, peel them, and let them cool.
- Place the cooled eggs in a container and completely cover them with your choice of shoyu tare. Refrigerate the sealed container for at least 12 hours (ideally 24 hours).
- Remove the eggs as needed and halve them with a piece of string (for a perfect cut). Don't throw away the tare! You can use it to marinate new eggs or for cooking.
