comment:

Hot spring eggs are eggs that are soaked in hot water at about 70 °C for a certain amount of time. The egg whites become softer than the egg yolks. They are eaten with soy sauce, which contains stock, or are put on salad, toast, pasta, etc. The yolk mixes with the white and becomes mild. Even just pouring soy sauce over them is delicious.
