Korean Mayak Eggs (Cassey’s Version)

Been seeing these Korean Mayak Eggs all over TikTok so I had to try! Omg, so good.

I tried my own version inspired by the caramelized eggs I ate growing up in Vietnamese “thit kho.” I basically doubled the honey and then because I love onions and am sensitive to salt, I added more onions and eggs to reduce the salt content per egg!

Korean Mayak Eggs (Cassey’s Version):

– 12 soft-boiled eggs (boil for 7 min)

Marinade:
• 2 yellow onions diced
• 5-6 fresh minced garlic cloves
• 2 bundles of scallions
• 5 jalapeños diced (bc I like spicy)
• 1 cup soy sauce
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup rice vinegar
• a little less than 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup sesame oil
• 2 tbsp chili crisp
• 1-2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Mix all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl or container. Let the eggs cool to room temp and peel. Add them to the container and let them marinate 1-2 days.

These are super yummy on their own, but you can also serve them over rice or ramen, or even on toast!
