These Super Addictive Korean Marinated Eggs Will Change Your LIFE! l Mayak Eggs

[@umdesch4]

Aaron, on a personal note...I am a Canadian who grew up speaking English as a first language, with a reasonable amount of French as well, having lived in Quebec for a few years. I moved to Mexico to work in IT for a university for a year, in a small town where few people spoke English, and it was 99.999% Spanish. I had to learn fast, and I had to live, work, shop, pay bills, and deal with everything in a language I hardly knew when I first arrived. It takes a lot out of you, even on days where you're not actually "doing" anything...so I know what its like, and the kind of stress you mentioned in your ad segue. I just want to say, your English is exceptional, and way better than my second or third languages are. Thank you for everything you do!

[@AaronandClaire]

Thank you so much for sharing your story and for your incredibly kind words! 🙏😍

[@shairuno]

you are so kind. this is the first time I heard a person who understands the difficulty most non-native English speakers are dealing with everyday.

[@blktauna]

That's me in Hong Kong. I can get around but its very stressful even if great fun.

[@craigmoss2981]

Y'all- you can use this marinade with soft or firm tofu! You can then eat as is OR fry up in thin slices for sandwiches!

[@Nice_Tree]

I like your videos, because you explain in details which ingredients can be replaced with more affordable ones and how that changes the taste. And the part where you show how to use leftovers is the best. It's much more than a recipe

[@mustwereallydothis]

Pro tip: mix the marinade in a large ziplock bag and marinate the eggs right in the bag. Be sure to remove all the air before sealing. Lay it flat on a shelf of your fridge and simply flip the whole bag over a couple of times while they marinate.

[@dorothyyoung8231]

Pro tip on this great pro tip: put your bag on a plate in the fridge just in case of leaks! Ask me how I know!

Pro tip: use reusable containers over disposable ones. It's more sustainable and you'll ingest less microplastic.

[@mustwereallydothis]

@Aura983 Sorry, but I have no intention of stopping my use of disposable ziplock bags until the major sources of plastic pollution start doing their part. I have my reasons, and debating the issue with a random stranger in a KZbin comment section is another thing I have no intention of doing.

​@@dorothyyoung8231 how did u know

[@chaikaomoua1169]

A trick I learned from making the marinated eggs for Ramen is use a small but tall container. Put your eggs in the marinade and put a piece of paper towel on top. Make sure to soak paper towel in the marinade by pushing it down. It will keep soaking the marinade and coat the side the is not in the marinade.

[@dashachizhova8621]

Aaron, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for your content - everything is so tasty and easy to make. You always keep in mind that some products might not be available in non-Asian countries. I lived in Thailand for 3 months and had to get used to the local groceries and cooking habits. I watched your videos every day to find new recipes to try, and it made it easier to find all the ingredients in Thai stores. Thank you for everyday inspiration and tasty food on my table 🩷

[@EbonRaven]

This is one of my favorite things to do with eggs. I usually have a TON of eggs in the fridge and I usually boil several any time I have water heating on the stove (like for pasta or ramen or whatever else needs boiling.) When I make this, I usually make about 8 to 10 at a time, I add dried shiitake mushrooms to the marinade as well, then when I set up my rice in the rice cooker I add some of the mushrooms from the marinade. This usually also includes some of the marinade in the rice, and they all cook together. Then I top with an egg or two and some butter (and a spoonful or three of marinade). It is SO good and it makes for such a wonderful and easy breakfast!

[@milomilo55]

That sounds delicious and it's another way to some of those mushrooms that I don't use often enough because I just run out of ideas for them. Thanks so much for that. I've made these eggs before and I love them but the addition of the mushrooms will take it up a notch.♥

[@EbonRaven]

@@milomilo55 happy to share! Just make sure to cook the mushrooms before eating them! But enjoy! They are so tasty.

[@umdesch4]

Aaron, you're like a mind reader or something. I've been watching every video and reading every article about these eggs I could find, for the last 2 days now. Trying to figure out the best way to make them. Your video was published literally just in time, as I was planning to make some tomorrow for the first time.

Another tip to avoid the bald spots on eggs, is to put a paper towel on top of them. It will get saturated with the marinade and colour the top of the eggs

[@김승훈-c7p]

OMGAWD!!! Delicious! Professionals cook, here! Glad to have the recipe, Chef! I am a type two diabetic. The next time I make them, I’m gonna cut the sugar in half.

[@ObsidianRose10]

I am obsessed with these eggs. Have been for a while. And if I don't cook immediately with the extra sauce, I just distribute in my silicone ice cube trays, and freeze it. That way, when I want to add it to something, I just grab a couple of cubes and there we go! 😊

[@sallyfreeman4228]

Hi Aaron and Claire, just a quick question, I live alone and although I would certainly polish off the eggs within a few days, the marinade would go to waste if I can only keep it for a week, so can I freeze it? Loving the videos and your cookbook is fab, I would encourage everyone to buy it. Love from the UK 🥰🥰

Use the marinade again for a second batch or toss it out. These eggs keep for weeks.

I don't know if you have eggs break on you in the water. I just recently learned that if you let the eggs sit in hot tap water for a few minutes, or while you are getting everything out, will help them not to break. Since I started doing this I have never had anymore cracked eggs. Just passing on the chef tips to other chefs. Thank you for the delicious recipe.

[@mg725]

I steam my eggs in a basket rather than boil them and they never crack. Also something to try!

I made this today, I halved the marination required, as I wanted to make it for just a person. It turned out to be amazing! I wish I had some Calrose or sushi rice to go with it! It was not a great combo with Indian style rice (not basmati), but still tasted amazing!!! 😊

Australia here. I have been absolutely loving cooking Korean food over the last few years (mostly because I enjoy it, but so do my Korean work colleagues!). I absolutely love eggs. I am definitely going to try this because they look absolutely delicious! I do have one question though, are the eggs served hot or cold? Clare wanted hit rice to go with them, so I wasn't sure.

[@ABIGPLAN]

when you submere eggs into the boiling water, do you keep them in it for 7 minutes from that exact point, or do you wait until it goes back into the boil and then wait 7 minutes?

[@alexclark4792]

From when you put them in, eggs cook fast and won't drop the temp significantly enough to effect the cook time more than maybe 3 seconds. If it takes a while to boil, the eggs were too cold, take them out a bit earlier next time and add 30 seconds or so this time.

[@Tom-yc8jv]

#AeronandClaire @05:15 An even better way to get rid of the uneven marinading, is to just put a paper towel on the top and scoop some of the marinade on top. Also, line the bowl with paper towels to prevent the area where the egg touches, from not marinading as well. Doing this will marinade the eggs all the way around and less work for you.

[@libertytaylor7416]

If I wanted to use my mirin with the soy instead of mixing sugar and vinegar, how much do you think would be a good substitute to maintain the same level of sweetness?

[@AP-ik4ur]

I’m actually very happy I discovered this KZbin channel! Can I use any soy sauce? I’m just super picky and have a preference of soy sauce, so I was wondering if it’d affect it negatively?

How do you heat the egg when pulled from the fridge? For ramen i just drop it in the bowl of hot soup. Do you heat in hot water and then add thr cold marinade counting on the rice and egg to perk it up?

It's normally served over a hot bowl of rice, so the rice will warm them enough. 😍

After boiling the eggs,put them in an ice bath immediately,It will stop the cooking process. Let them marinate at least one day or even two!! You can 1. Eat them cold straight from the fridge 2.put them on hot rice/in hot ramen 3.put them out of the fridge and wait a little until they have room temperature Hope that helps😊

[@avian318]

I tasted these before and they were so good! How long do marinated eggs last and what's the longest amount of time they should be in the marinate? I tried some eggs that had been in the marinate for a couple of days and they tasted way too salty to me.

[@UberSprite]

I accidentally left a batch in the marinade for 2 weeks. That was toooo looong! I prefer about 3 days to 5 days. If that makes them too salty for you, either soak only 24 hours, or adjust the sauce ingredients. Perhaps use a low sodium soy sauce and ideas like that. I've made this recipe 3 times so far, and am adjusting each time for my personal preference. Just remember to write down what you do, so you can remember the next time!

What do you think about substituting the vinegar with mirin?

[@AaronandClaire]

I don’t recommend substituting vinegar for mirin because while vinegar adds acidity to the dish, mirin has a mild sweet flavor. If it’s not Japanese food (and mirin does not play an important role in the dish), you can skip the mirin or substitute with water with a little bit of sugar. Hope this helps!
