Korean Marinated Hard Boiled Eggs

In Wisconsin where I live, fresh eggs are available just about everywhere, and are relatively inexpensive. So today I kick up the flavor profile of your typical hard boiled egg.

By marinating the eggs in a sweet and spicy mixture of soy sauce, jalapeno peppers and sesame oil, they will take on some wonderful flavors. Perfect for a snack but also work nicely as a side dish to Asian food. For extra spicy eggs, add some Sriracha or crushed red pepper flakes to the mixture.

Ingredients:

1 cup soy sauce

1 cup water

1/4 cup sugar

3 medium green onions, chopped

2 medium jalapeno peppers, seeded and diced

1 tablespoon minced garlic

2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds

12 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled

3 teaspoons sesame oil

Combine soy sauce, water, sugar, green onions, jalapeno, garlic, and sesame seeds together in a large bowl. Add eggs to the bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 8 hours to overnight.

Remove eggs from the refrigerator. Slice in half and place on a serving platter. Spoon some of the marinade over top and drizzle with sesame oil to serve.
