Ingredients

Main Ingredients (For 20 quail eggs)

  • Quail eggs 20
  • Onion 1/2 (120g)
  • Scallions 2 stalks

Seasonings

  • [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1.5 tbsp
  • [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 1.5 tbsp
  • [A] Vinegar 1.5 tbsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 3 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 1 tbsp
  • [A] Sesame Oil 1 tbsp
  • [A] Toasted Sesame Seeds 2 tbsp
  • [A] Grated Garlic 1 tsp
  • [A] Grated Ginger 1 tsp

Steps

  1. Place 20 quail eggs in boiling water. Heat for 2 minutes while stirring with chopsticks so that the yolks remain in the center.
  2. After 2 minutes of heating, turn off the heat and let them sit for another 1 minute.
  3. After a total of 3 minutes of heating, drain and cool in cold water to remove the rough heat.
  4. Peel and finely chop 1/2 onion (120g).
  5. Place the chopped onion in a heatproof container.
  6. Add 1.5 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) and 1.5 tbsp Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) to the container, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 2 minutes 30 seconds at 600W.
  7. To the translucent onion, add 3 tbsp Soy Sauce, 1.5 tbsp Vinegar, 1 tbsp Sugar, 1 tbsp Sesame Oil, 1 tsp Grated Garlic, 1 tsp Grated Ginger, and 2 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds. Mix well.
  8. Place the cooled quail eggs in a lidded container, add a small amount of water, and close the lid.
  9. Shake the container to crack the shells of the eggs. This is the key! Cracking the shells allows water to seep in, making them easier to peel.
  10. Peel the quail eggs while cracking the shells.
  11. Place the peeled quail eggs into a storage container.
  12. Mix the prepared marinade with the eggs and ensure they are fully submerged.
  13. Finely chop 2 stalks of scallions and add them to the marinade.
  14. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or until the flavors have penetrated. It's ready!
