Hello.
I guess you know Ramen which Japanese noodle. Have you ever seen boiled egg on the Ramen before? This egg is called Nitamago or Ajitsuki-tamago. The taste of Nitamago depends on families or restaurants. But most of Nitamago is marinated with soy sauce.
Easy to make. Just boil eggs and marinate the sauce.

Ingredients
1.5 tablespoon of Oyster sauce
1 tablespoon of Vinegar
1 tablespoon of Soy sauce
1 tablespoon of Mirin
50ml Water
☆Heat up all ingredients in the pan until boiling. When it is cool down, pour this sauce into the ziplock with boiled eggs. Marinate it for a half day or overnight.

☆I usually put eggs into the pot after water is boiled and boil eggs for 6 to 7 minutes.
Enjoy Nitamago with steamed rice or noodle!
