This is the way I do it now. Then I marinate them like ramen eggs. Ajitsuke eggs are usually soft boiled, but you can steam them for longer until the centers are at the firmness you like. I use this recipe without sake or sugar. But you can test it and see what flavors you like.

I want to try this method - no peel and they look perfect

I'm going to try this, someone had told me to cook for 4, let depressurize for 4, but the edges of the yolk get grayish.


I do cook for 5, natural release for 5 (but make sure that you turn the machine to "off," not "keep warm"), ice bath for 5. It is so easy and the peeling is a cinch.

I add mustard, pickle relish, salt + pepper to "doctor" them up.

Do they have to be hard boiled? You could switch it up and make an omlette or scamble with veggies, salsa, etc?

A tablespoon of nonfat yogurt has about 20 calories. A teaspoon of butter has about 30 calories. You can have the butter, it's really ok.


Its not just about calories. Fat and cholesterol are factors too.


Dietary cholesterol doesn’t cause elevated serum cholesterol


Go away. OP asked for a recommendation in Food and Cooking. You can take your little side rant to the Health and Medicine forum if you want. It has no place here in the Food and Cooking forum.

You could try poached eggs in the oven instead.
