The hardest part about making theseaddictingTaiwanese Soy Marinated Eggs is peeling the eggshells

But don’t worry; I have a few tricks to help you out. If you are a visual learner like me, I also filmed aYOUTUBE tutorialon how to make theperfect jammy egg every single time

#1 CHOOSING THE RIGHT EGG

I prefer to use FRESH EGGS whenever I am making jammy eggs. Let the eggs rest atroom temperaturebefore cooking, ensuring everything is cookedevenly. Fresh eggs will have a firmer white, making peeling easier without breaking the delicate egg whites.

#2 ADD VINEGAR TO THE WATER BEFORE BOILING

The acid from the vinegar will helpbreak downthe shells, which will help the eggs peel easier when the eggs are cooked.

#3 ALWAYS SET A TIMER!

I find the perfect jammy eggs take around7 minutesto cook. You can adjust your cooking time based on your personal preference; however, make sureALWAYSto set a timer to ensure all the eggs arecooked evenly.

#4 ICE BATH

Once cooked, promptly transfer the eggs to a bowl filled withice water. This step stops the cooking process and helps the eggs cool rapidly, preventing overcooking and achieving thedesired soft texture. The ice bath will also shock the eggshell, making it easier to peel.

#5 POINTY SPOON

I like to use apointy teaspoonto help the peeling process to be a lot easier. After letting the eggs rest in ice water for a few minutes:

• Gently tap the eggs with the back of the spoon to crack the shell, then carefully, use the tip of the spoon to peel off the top of the egg.
• Slide the teaspoon into the layer between the egg and the shell.
• Peel off the shell, ensuring the whites remain intact.
