Ingredients

For the Marinade:

Steps

  1. Add water to a pot (enough to cover all the eggs), salt, and vinegar. Heat to a medium-high simmer.
  2. Add eggs and boil for about 6 minutes for gooey yolks (adjust for preferred doneness).
  3. Transfer eggs to an ice bath and let sit for 10 minutes.
  4. Carefully peel the eggs.
  5. Make the marinade by combining garlic, peppers, green onion, sesame seeds, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and water in a large bowl.
  6. Add peeled eggs to the marinade. Ensure eggs are mostly submerged.
  7. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight for best flavor.
