Ingredients:
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Soy Sauce
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 4 slices of fresh, soft White Bread
Method:
- Perfectly Boiled Eggs: Start by boiling your eggs. To get them just right, let them simmer in boiling water for about 10 minutes. After boiling, immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. This will help you achieve a creamy, not rubbery, texture.
- Secret Sauce Whisking: While the eggs cool down, let's work on that secret sauce. Mix mayonnaise, sugar, soy sauce, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper in a bowl. Whisk it until it's smooth, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
- Fluff it Up: Once your eggs are cooled and peeled, mash them up finely. Add the creamy egg clouds to your secret sauce mixture. This is where you create that cloud-like fluffiness. Gentle mixing is the key, so be kind to your eggs.
- Toasting Technique: Take your slices of bread and toast them to golden perfection. Here's a pro tip: lightly butter the bread before toasting. It adds a lovely richness to your sandwich, and it helps prevent it from becoming overly soggy.

- Generous Filling: Spread your delightful egg mixture generously on one slice of bread. Pile it up because, trust me, you won't want to skimp on the filling. It's the heart and soul of Tamago Sando.
- Trim the Crusts: If you're feeling a tad fancy, you can trim the crusts. It not only makes the sandwich look neater, but also helps you focus on the creamy goodness within.
- Slicing Savvy: Use a sharp knife to slice your sandwich into halves or quarters. A clean, quick cut will give you those beautifully even sections.
