In reply to Sandy. You definitely can. When I use the same marinade twice, I usually bring the marinade to a boil one more time just to sanitize it.

Can you reuse the marinade for another batch of eggs?

I found the amount of soy sauce to be a little salty so added a little more brown sugar and mirin – they were perfect. Use Thai chili fresh for heat. I can’t get enough of the marinade – the anise really makes all the difference and transforms this dish into something special. Also added scallions, both green and white parts to the marinade and its chef’s kiss.

In reply to Maggie Zhu. Yes, it’s like a cartouche in culinary. If you use parchment paper, it’s better, since the fibers from the towel will get into the egg marinade.

In reply to Alison. The paper towel idea is great! Thanks for leaving a positive review and sharing the tip :)

These were super tasty and I also used a paper towel over the eggs in the marinade to make it so the eggs were fully submerged with a weight overtop but were also completely covered in the marinade since the paper towel soaks up the marinade and covers the rest of the eggs with it!

In reply to Maggie Zhu. Thank you! This recipe came out great. I immediately made a second batch because we ate up the first.

In reply to Jessica. I usually leave the chili peppers in the marinade and it doesn't really make it spicier (as long as you use mild dried chili peppers). But you can also fish them out if you're concerned.

Hi, this looks so great, I just made it and I’m wondering if I leave the aromatic chili peppers and the Streese in the marinade or strain them out before adding the eggs? Thanks so much.

The recipe went great due to some unforseen negligence of the cook there’s no vinegar or chili so i made some substitution such as lemon for vinegar and other kind of chili plus a few garlic and lemt me tell you it was bussing
