1. Ingredients: 6 eggs. Marinade: 2 star anise, 1 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon salt, 2 bowls of water or stock.
2. Boiled eggs: Boiling eggs is very important. Because it takes a long time to cook, it is easy to overcook the egg yolks if not done properly. Boil the water first and then add the eggs. And put a little salt in the water so that the eggs will not break easily during cooking and cause the white and yolk to flow out. Wait until the water boils again, then turn to medium heat and simmer for 6 minutes. At this time, you can take the eggs out and put them in cold water and then peel them and set aside. The eggs cooked this way taste great.
3. Make the sauce: cut the ginger and garlic into thin slices. Five tablespoons of soy sauce, two tablespoons of sugar, 2/3 cup of water, and appropriate amount of salt. The amount of condiments can be changed depending on how many eggs you have.
4. Marinate: Put the sauce and eggs into a pot and cook over medium heat. Be sure to stir constantly at this time. After the sauce boils, turn to low heat and simmer for about 10 minutes. Pay attention to turning it up and down frequently. Finally, just wait for the juice to completely absorb the flavor.
