Directions

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the white vinegar.
  2. Once the water is boiling, carefully add the eggs and cook for exactly 6 minutes on high. Once the eggs are done, remove from pot and place them in a cold-water bath. Crack one side of the egg and fit a spoon between the eggshell and the egg and twist to remove the egg.
  3. In a bowl combine the marinade ingredients. Add the deshelled eggs and let marinate for at least one hour covered in the refrigerator (fermented eggs can be stored for up to 4-6 days in the fridge).
  4. Garnish with chopped onions and enjoy it alone or with your favorite dish.
