Updated egg cooking parameters for soy marinated eggs:

• Boil water per usual, add eggs only after water is vigorously boiling
• 6 mins gets you firm whites and liquid yolk
• Into ice bath, the temperature shock also really helps with peeling
• Overnight marinade (I just use 鹵水)
• Profit 

I would still do 6:30 for just set yolks if I'm eating the eggs boiled.
