GH Tip [COOKERY MAKE SURE WE HAVE ENOUGH SOY FOR THIS PLEASE AS WILL BE FOR COVER]

For soy marinated eggs, heat 5tbsp each soy sauce and water with 1tbsp sugar in a small pan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Cool, then put into a food bag with peeled, soft-boiled eggs; seal and chill for at least 4hr (or up to 2 days).
