Step 1

Start by adding the eggs to a pot. Cover with about 2 inches of cold water, and place on the stove on medium high heat. Bring this to a simmer, then remove from the heat and let them sit in the hot water for 11 minutes.

Step 2

Add another pot to the stove and add the remaining ingredients. Bring this to a boil, then turn off the heat, and let cool.

Step 3

Add cold water to a large bowl and dump in the ice. After the 11 minutes, remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place gently into the ice water. This will allow the eggs to be easily peeled.

Step 4

Carefully peel the eggs and set them aside.

Step 5

Pour the soy sauce mixture into a sealable container large enough to hold the soy sauce mixture, and eggs. Add the eggs into the container. Seal, and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of four days.

Step 6

After four days, take an egg out, and slice in half and serve. Eat it by itself, or serve alongside a bowl of rice.
