Ingredients
- Boiled 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Kewpie Japanese mayonnaise
- Half-tsp sugar
- 1/4 t salt
- Pinch black pepper
- Japanese milk bread (shokupan) Four pieces
- Optional butter
Instructions
1. Boil Eggs
Eggs should be medium-boiled after 8–9 minutes in boiling water. Cool them in an ice bath. Bowl the peeled eggs.
2. Eggs mashed
Mash the eggs with a fork or potato masher until chunky or smooth.
3. Make the Filling
Add Japanese mayonnaise, sugar, salt, and black pepper to mashed eggs. Make the filling creamy and seasoned by mixing. Adjust spice to taste.
4. Prepare the bread
Trim milk bread crusts for tidy edges. For extra richness, gently butter each piece.
5. Sandwich Assembly
Spread egg contents equally on two pieces of bread. Form sandwiches using remaining pieces.
6. Cut/Serve
Slice the sandwiches diagonally or into squares for serving after gently pressing them together. A typical Tamago Sando appearance requires the egg contents to be visible from the sliced edges.
