Description
An unusual Asian-style appetizer: eggs marinated in a strong tea-soy brine with ginger, garlic and honey, served with cucumber, cilantro and sesame.
- Hard-boil the eggs, cool and carefully peel them.
- Prepare the marinade: in a saucepan combine soy sauce, water, black tea, honey, sliced ginger and crushed garlic. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5-7 minutes.
- Place the peeled eggs into the hot marinade, fully submerging them. Leave for at least 1-2 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
- Slice the cucumber into thin slices or strips.
- Remove the eggs from the marinade and cut each in half.
- Arrange the cucumber on a plate and place the egg halves on top.
- Drizzle with a little marinade, sprinkle with sesame seeds and finely chopped cilantro.
