About Ramen egg

Ramen eggs, or "Ajitsuke Tamago," are soft-boiled eggs marinated in a savory blend of soy sauce, mirin, and sometimes sake. Originating from Japanese cuisine, they are a traditional topping for ramen dishes, adding rich umami flavor and creamy texture. The eggs are typically cooked to have a firm white and a slightly runny yolk, absorbing the marinade for hours to deepen their taste. Ramen eggs are a source of protein and essential nutrients like vitamin B12, selenium, and choline, supporting muscle repair and brain function. However, their sodium content can be high due to the marinade, which may not be suitable for low-sodium diets. They are versatile and enjoy popularity beyond ramen bowls, often served as snacks or side dishes. A perfect blend of indulgence and nutrition, ramen eggs bring depth and balance to any meal.
