Easy Egg Salad

Featuring a rich and creamy egg salad tucked between soft slices of milk bread, this Tamago Sando is quick &amp; easy to make, yet makes for an incredibly satisfying breakfast or snack to instantly brighten your day. This Japanese egg sandwich is truly melt-in-your-mouth delicious and comes together with just a few ingredients.

Tamago Sando (Japanese Egg Sandwich)

eggs (plus 2 more for soft-boiled egg, if preferred)

onion

tbsp Kewpie mayonnaise

tsp sugar

salt (or

black pepper

shokupan (milk bread) or brioche (crusts removed or intact)

butter (for the bread)

Add vinegar and salt to a pot of boiling water, reduce the heat, and gently place the eggs into the water (if you plan to add the extra jammy egg in the middle, I recommend marking the shell with a permanent marker).

Prepare a large bowl of ice water. After 10 minutes (6 minutes for the extra jammy egg), immediately transfer the eggs to the ice water bath. Allow the eggs to cool completely, for at least 5 minutes.

Separate the egg yolks and whites. Mash the yolks in a bowl and dice the egg whites (you can also mash them together, but this will result in a fluffier sandwich).

Add the diced egg whites and onion to the bowl, and mix to combine. Add kewpie mayo, sugar, salt, and pepper. Mix together with a spoon until well combined.

Spread the bread slice with butter, and add a generous amount of egg salad (with the jammy egg in the middle, if preferred) and cover with the other slice of bread. Cut the sandwich in half and enjoy!

Place eggs into a medium saucepan and cover with water by an inch. Bring to a boil over high heat and remove from heat. Cover the saucepan with the lid and set aside for 10 minutes. Then drain the water and fill with cold water to cool down the eggs. Once eggs are cool, peel and finely chop them or grate them with a grater.

Transfer chopped eggs a medium bowl and add mayonnaise, dijon mustard, chives, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir with a spoon to mix well. If salad seems dry, add more mayonnaise to reach desired consistency. 

Spread the egg salad on half the sandwich slices and top with the other half. You should get 3-4 sandwiches depending on how full you spread the egg salad on them. You can also serve this with crackers or pita chips. 

We normally make ours with celery but I added green onions diced and the paprika to your recipe and it was a nice touch!

How did u do on the egg fast diet. I'm thinking about starting it tomorrow.

I know you have to limit your protein too as well as your carbs, so that the fat you eat is used to burn fat , and the protein won't be used to burn fat instead, but how can you limit your protein when so many foods have it in them, like eggs, cheese, meat, yogurt, ect.?

This is a great recipe.  Tasted better than expected.

Hi, Melissa ! I'm ready for week 1 ! I lost 6 pounds of fat in the 3 day plan !! My keto stick was dark purple this morning !! I had keto headache yesterday but I drank my cup of chicken broth and it went away. It's all been worth it. No hunger, no cravings and 6 pounds of fat gone ! Looking forward to this week's menus. Thanks again for making this so easy to do.

Hi, I did Atkins 15 years ago with fabulous results. I've been a naughty girl these past 5 years with the obvious result- weight gain. (15 lbs). Your blog inspired me to restart once again!  I love that you are all about 'real food' not prepackaged. 
Thanks, keep up the good work.

This is the amazing recipe and sooo simple. I did a finger food party for 15 people. Made sandwiches with this filling and everyone wanted the recipe. And not a single high carb morsel crossed my lips either, holding steady. Thank you

This recipe is good however there’s no way you can get (3) 1/2 cup servings out of it. I made it for my husband and I and after scooping (2) 1/2 cup servings there was probably only a 1/4 cup left. 

I bought your book Keto for Life and I have actually found the serving size has been incorrect on the recipes I’ve made from it so far. This is really disappointing when planning meals and needing to have leftovers for lunch.

I had the same experience as you.  I measured out two half cup servings and only had about a half cup left.  Next time I will know to divide into three and not measure.  I have seen the same thing with a few other recipes.  And when I put the ingredients into My Fitness Pal, the calories match for a serving.

Know what makes this recipe even better (and it is really good the way it is)? Stir in Palmetto Pimento cheese (the jalapeno is my favorite). I am guessing that I add a generous Tablespoon per egg. Yum!

I was told that yogurt is unacceptable because of the high levels of milk sugars

Wonderfully tasty recipe. Doing the Egg Fast leading up to my daughter’s wedding on Saturday. How long does this keep in the fridge or would you recommend freezing any leftovers over the weekend, not that I expect to have any leftover as I’m not a Buffalo sauce fan &amp; will probably repeat Egg Salad for dinner.

This is an easy, delicious egg salad recipe that wins every time.  The addition of the bacon adds the perfect crunch...I don't miss the bread at all!  And the zip of the mustard adds much needed flavor and keeps the dish from being too heavy.  I love these wrapped up in a large romaine leaf or on top of a bed of spinach.  
Thank you for providing so many easy and delicious recipes!

This is great! I had no lemon juice on hand, but I did have banana pepper brine, so I added that instead, to try it out. Super delicious!

I really like eggs and this was a simple and delightful form of egg salad. I like the flavor the lemon adds

So easy and so good! I love egg salad and it helped me get through my day as a snack during the turbo soup diet! Never got hungry!

Apparently this is an older blog, but here I am July 2021 thrilled to find your soup keto "starter" and I just ordered your recipe book on Amazon.....here's to a new healthier eating way of life ..thanks

Quick, easy and hubby loved it. I added a little spice to it.

So yummy! I like making little cucumber egg sandwiches and they are the perfect lunch!

This recipe was so easy and both my hubby and I love it!  I make it frequently and it's very satisfying!

This is a very tasty way to eat eggs! I DO, however add about a1/2 t. of DILL WEED to it. After reading up on dill, which I LOVE, it makes great sense to add it anywhere we can. I just did the egg fast this week, lost 6.8 pounds. Yeah!! And some dill flavor in egg salad is perfect.
