The key to ramen eggs (known in Japanese as ajitsuke tamago 味付け卵) is that they aren't just flavoured by their marinade.

Two days curing is about right for curing ramen eggs, but you can go more or less depending on the levels of salt and sugar in the liquid.

Even if you're not making ramen eggs, this video has some tips for how to get your regular boiled eggs perfect every time.
