I created these Japanese Deviled Eggs yesterday for a dinner party we went to. The eggs are marinated in soy sauce, mirin, garlic, and ginger. I love experimenting with new versions of a classic dish.

  • Prep: 25 mins
  • Yields: Makes 12 eggs

Ingredients

6 large eggs hard boiled eggs

Marinade

1 cup soy sauce, preferably organic

¼ cup cool water

2 tablespoons mirin or pure maple syrup

1 garlic clove, minced or grated

1 scallion, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

Filling

2 scallion whites, minced

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 teaspoon white miso

2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce

1 teaspoon soy sauce

½ teaspoon wasabi paste

Toppings

2 scallion greens, sliced thinly on the diagonal

black sesame seeds

Directions

1Make the marinade. In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, mirin, garlic, scallion, and ginger.

2Place the eggs in the marinade for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours. Turn them frequently in the marinade to ensure they are marinating evenly.

3Remove the eggs from the marinade and slice them in half from pole to pole. Carefully remove the yolks and add them to a bowl and set the whites aside. To the yolks, add the minced scallion whites, mayonnaise, miso, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce and wasabi paste. Using a fork to break up the yolks, mix thoroughly to combine.

4To fill the deviled eggs, scoop 1 tablespoon of the filling into each egg white. Top with a few slices of scallion and sprinkle with black sesame seeds. Repeat with remaining eggs and serve immediately.
