How to quickly make egg for ramen? ›

Slice a hard-boiled egg in half and add it to your ramen with seasoning and vegetables. Alternatively, whisk an egg until the yolk and whites are combined and pour it into your noodles to enjoy egg-drop ramen.

Try a vegan version of the infamous TikTok ramen for a quick, easy, and satisfying recipe. Skip the broth, and instead mix ramen noodles with a sweet and spicy soy sauce, Just Egg, and Everything Bagel Seasoning. Top it all off with fresh Chinese chives for the perfect lunch or dinner!

If you are using a tea kettle you can simply pour the boiling water into a heat-safe bowl and continue as normal. Next, add the egg to the pot and cover it with a lid. Set your timer for 15 minutes. While the onsen egg cooks, you can prepare your ramen.

Using a spider or slotted spoon, carefully lower eggs into water. Reduce heat to maintain a bare simmer (about 190°F/88°C). Cook for exactly 6 minutes for a liquid egg yolk and 7 minutes for jammy egg yolk. Drain hot water and carefully peel eggs under cold running water.

Carefully and gently lower one egg at a time into the boiling water with a mesh strainer/skimmer or a ladle. When you add the first egg, set a 7-minute timer. You can cook them 6 to 6½ minutes for a runny egg yolk and 8 to 9 minutes for a custard-like egg yolk.

You just cook your ramen like normally, then just beat up an egg, add it to your noodles with some garlic powder, the seasoning packet that came with your noodles, and a stick of butter. Give it a little stir for a minute. Little confession. I have actually never had an egg in my noodles before.

Egg yolk: This helps make this broth and ramen super creamy! Don't worry about it being raw, it does cook through as the hot broth hits the seasoning mixture. Kewpie mayo: I love to use Japanese mayo here! But, you can use regular mayo, too.

Raw eggs typically contain the same benefits as cooked eggs but they don't aid nutrient absorption quite as well. Eating raw eggs also comes with a small risk of Salmonella food poisoning; however, there are steps you can take to minimise this risk to a very low level.

Consuming raw eggs puts you at risk for contracting salmonellosis, a foodborne illness from Salmonella bacteria that can cause diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps. Salmonella can be on the outside of an eggshell but also inside the egg itself.

Can you microwave an egg? ›

When cooking eggs in the microwave, always use a microwave-safe container (e.g. glass, ceramic or microwave-safe plastic) and pierce yolk and white several times or whisk before cooking. Never cook an egg in its shell in the microwave; it will explode.

Ramen eggs are Japanese soft-boiled eggs marinated in a sweetened soy sauce mixture and served as a ramen topping. In Japan, ramen eggs are called ajitsuke tamago or ajitama.

These soy-marinated eggs can also be a healthy and convenient snack all on their own! You could even doll them up a little to serve as an izakaya-style appetizer. Or do what I do: pack one ramen egg in your bento box and save one for a low-carb side to your dinner.

Using the tip, slide the teaspoon into the layer between the egg and the shell, and peel off the shell. Add the eggs into the marinade and let it rest for at least 3 hours or overnight.

Add a few inches of water to a microwwave-safe bowl or mug, then carefully crack the egg into it. Use a toothpick to prick the yolk to allow steam to escape, and pop it into the microwave for 60 seconds. If the egg whites have become opaque, you're ready to go. If not, add another 30 seconds to the cook time.

Gently lower in fridge-cold eggs. Lower the heat slightly – so the eggs don't crack due to being bashed around but water is still at a gentle boil. Start the timer – 6 minutes for runny yolks, 8 minutes for soft boiled, 10 minutes for classic hard boiled, 15 minutes for unpleasant rubbery whites and powdery dry yolks.
