FAQ

Ramen topped with pork chashu, dried seaweed, soft- boiled marinated egg, wood ear and loads of onion leeks with firm noodles infused with rich pork broth.
Ajitama is a short form of ajitsuke tamago. This means seasoned (ajitsuke) egg (tamago) in Japanese. That means nitamago can actually also be called ajitama! (It is also a seasoned egg, right?)
The pork bones are cooked for hours over high heat so the collagen from the bones has time to transform into gelatin. This broth is also rich in minerals as the marrow and fats from the bone release all the good stuff too. The soup has a silky texture and a cloudy coloring – Tonkotsu is truly heartwarming stuff.
These soy-marinated eggs can also be a healthy and convenient snack all on their own! You could even doll them up a little to serve as an izakaya-style appetizer. Or do what I do: pack one ramen egg in your bento box and save one for a low-carb side to your dinner.
It depends what the ingredient ratios of your marinating liquid are but for the most part, ajitama has a delicious mix of tart, sweet, and savory flavors on the outside. That all combines to form this amazing umami that coats your mouth as soon as you start chewing.
