Aromatic Marinated Duck Egg Recipe

For Marinating the Duck Eggs

1. 1

   Prepare the Marinade

   In a saucepan, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, water, star anise, cinnamon stick, sugar, and black peppercorns. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let it cool.

2. 2

   Prepare the Duck Eggs

   Bring a pot of water to a boil and gently lower the duck eggs into the boiling water. Boil for about 6-7 minutes for a soft yolk. Remove from heat and transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool quickly.

3. 3

   Peel and Marinate

   Once cooled, carefully peel the duck eggs and place them in a glass jar. Pour the cooled marinade over the eggs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
