Whisk together salt, sugar, and the spices from your choice of flavor until thoroughly combined. Pour half of the mixture into an 8x8 baking dish. Use the back of a spoon, a small bowl, or a lime to make 5 small, evenly spaced depressions where each yolk will sit. Working with one egg at a time, carefully separate white and yolks. Gently place a yolk in each depression. Carefully sprinkle remaining salt mix over yolks, ensuring that each is covered well. Wrap dish tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 to 6 days.

After yolks have cured, preheat oven to 200 degrees. Carefully remove yolks from salt mixture and brush off seasonings. Rinse in a bowl of cold water to remove remaining salt. Gently pat with paper towels. Place each yolk on a greased wire rack on top of a baking sheet. Dry out in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until yolks are dry and firm to the touch. Let cool and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a month.

Thinly slice, grate, or crumble yolks over hot pasta, roasted asparagus or other veggies, burgers, salad greens, soups, toasted bread, homemade ramen, risotto, etc. The possibilities are endless!
