Boiled egg is the best accompaniment to onigiri bento. It plays a supporting role in supplementing the protein that is often lacking in onigiri alone. It is also convenient that the shell can be used as a wrapper.

The difficult part is seasoning. For bento lunches, it is standard practice to bring salt wrapped in aluminum and put a little bit of salt on it, but it is difficult to get the right amount of salt to stick. It is surprisingly difficult to adjust the saltiness to the best level.

Come to think of it, you can find salted boiled eggs in convenience stores. I wondered if it was possible to make them at home... and found out that it was surprisingly easy, so I will introduce them to you.

The following is a guideline for pulling out.

Slightly salty: about 16 hours
Moderately salty: about 1-2 days
Firmly salty: about 2-3 days

Be careful not to soak too long or they will become salty. The time may vary slightly depending on the size of the eggs and how they are soaked, but it is safe to pull them out within 2 to 3 days. Also, exclude those with cracks in the shell, as they will be too salty.

When eating, simply peel the shell as you would a regular boiled egg. There is no change in appearance, but if you eat it, you will know it is salted. I recommend using them not only for lunch, but for making salads, hors d'oeuvres, small snacks, you name it!
