Ajitsuke tamago(味付け玉子)

What kind of dish is Ajitsuke tamago??

Boiled eggs are marinated in a sauce that combines soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, and red pepper. It is also called nitamago or ajitama.

tamago(たまご)= egg

The standard egg dishes are tamagoyaki and omelettes, but sometimes a slightly different egg dish is also good.

It depends on personal preference, but I like soft-boiled eggs. If you prefer hard-boiled, boil for 12 minutes. The boiling time will change if you boil it from water.

Use eggs that have just been taken out of the refrigerator. While boiling, roll with chopsticks so that the yolk is in the center. Use plenty of hot water to submerge the eggs.

It’s a simple dish, but please follow the points.

In Japan, raw eggs and soft-boiled eggs are preferred. The custom of eating raw eggs is a unique food culture in the world. Eggs produced in Japan undergo thorough hygiene control during the manufacturing process, so the risk of salmonella contamination is much lower than in other countries. Therefore, Japanese eggs can be safely eaten without being heated.
