Instructions

  1. Boil eggs hard for 10 minutes and quench. As soon as you can touch them, tap them lightly all around with a teaspoon so that they get small cracks and stack in a tall container.
  2. Wash the herbs and add to the eggs together with the spice grains.
  3. Bring the 1.2 liters of water to the boil with the salt and pour it over the eggs while hot but no longer boiling.
  4. Let the eggs soak for at least 3 days.
  5. The eggs can be eaten like sole eggs with vinegar and oil, or sliced on bread or just like that.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
