0.5 cup soy sauce light sodium
0.25 cup water
0.25 cup mirin
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

vinegar optional for boiling eggs

Instructions

Boiling Eggs

Bring a pot of water to a boil and gently place the eggs in the boiling water. Let the eggs boil for 6 minutes for perfect soft boiled eggs.
If you wish, add some vinegar to the water. This will make the eggs easier to peel. Use 2 tablespoons of vinegar per 5 to 6 cups of water.
After 6 minutes, remove the eggs from the boiling water and shock them in ice water. Let the eggs cool completely.
Soaking the eggs for about 15 minutes or longer is key to make the eggs easier to peel.

Making the Marinade

While the eggs are cooling, combine the soy sauce, water, mirin, and sugar in a marinating container or bowl. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
If using a bowl, transfer to the container you'll be marinating in.
