Ajitama ia a popular Japanese side dish or topping for ramen. They are made by soft-boiling eggs and then marinating them in a savory soy-based sauce. The eggs are typically cooked until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, and then they are marinated for several hours or overnight. This gives the eggs a rich, flavorful, and slightly sweet taste.
Ajitama are a delicious and versatile addition to any Japanese meal. They can be enjoyed on their own, or they can be used to top ramen, rice bowls, salads, and other dishes. They are also a popular snack food.
Because Ajitama are time-consuming to make, they are also sold ready-made in supermarkets.
