Combine the following in a plastic bag:
1 Cup Water
1/3 Cup Soy Sauce
1/3 Cup Mirin
Bring water to a boil (enough to cover 6 eggs). Keep the eggs refrigerated until ready to add to boiling water. Carefully lower eggs into water with slotted spoon. Immediately lower the heat enough to maintain a simmer and cook the eggs for exactly 7 minutes. The water should be simmering but the eggs should not be moving around the pan. After 7 minutes remove eggs from simmering water and submerge in an ice bath for several minutes. Be gentle when peeling the eggs. Add the eggs to the marinade let sit for several hours or overnight. Use the eggs within a few days.
You can adjust the cooking times as follows:
Egg yolk very runny - cook for 6 to 6 1/2 minutes
Egg yolk custardy, not runny - cook 8 to 9 minutes
