Step:

Bring the water to a boil in a pot. Put the eggs in the boiling water carefully with a spoon so that they won't break. Lower the heat, but still keep boiling for 6:30 to 7 minutes.
Quickly drain water and put them in iced water (It makes it easier to peel). Then peel.
Mix the ingredients for the marinade in a ziploc bag. Put eggs into it and squeeze out the air and seal up a bag. Soak for half day to overnight.

Ingredients

2 eggs (or as many as you want)
enough water to cover the eggs (add a pinch of salt or 1 tsp vinegar to prevent the eggshell from cracking)
MARINADE: (per 2 eggs)
1 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 Tbsp mirin
1/2 Tbsp sugar
