Cured egg yolks in soy sauce

Side dish

Take a trip to Japan for a good dose of umami with egg yolks cured in soy sauce! There's no need to cook them, just be patient: let them rest in the fridge, and they'll melt in your mouth and become superbly fragrant. Then it's up to you: slip them into an onigiri, place them on a donburi with sushi rice, sesame seeds and crumbled nori... a pure delight! And if you're in a hurry, try our Airfryer version, made with olive oil but just as tasty!
