In my efforts to continue eating breakfast like the Japanese, I attempted onsen eggs (poached eggs with a bonito infused soy). Against my better judgement, I followed the recipe and let room temp eggs sit in boiled water for 18 minutes (off the heat). The result was fully set eggs that were perfectly fine but not really the poached egg experience I was hoping for. Will have another go at them in a few days and see what happens. #food

@elfkin yeah, that timing seems way off to me. I don’t remember the exact timing, but I used fridge temp eggs at it was closer to 9 minutes. Don’t quote me on that, just another data point to calibrate from! Do you put the soy in the water? If so, how much. Might give it a go today.
