Tamago Sando: 7-Eleven-Style Egg Salad Sandwich

Egg Salad Sandwich

Ingredients

  • 2 slices of Japanese milk bread (shokupan)
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • 3 tablespoons Kewpie mayonnaise
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread
    Lightly butter one side of each slice of bread. This adds a nice richness to the sandwich.

  2. Make the Egg Salad
    Peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs. In a bowl, mix the chopped eggs with Kewpie mayonnaise, salt, and pepper until well combined. The mayonnaise should be smooth and creamy.

  3. Assemble the Sandwich
    Spread the egg salad mixture evenly over the unbuttered side of one slice of bread. Place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side facing out.

  4. Serve
    Trim off the crusts if desired, and cut the sandwich in half diagonally to make two triangles. Enjoy your homemade Tamago Sando!

Note: You can customize your sandwich by adding finely chopped herbs, like chives or parsley, for an extra burst of flavour.

Tips for the Perfect Tamago Sando

  • Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best flavour.
  • Chill the egg salad for a bit before assembling the sandwich for easier handling.
  • If you can't find Japanese milk bread, use the softest, freshest white bread available.
