What is an Egg Sandwich?
Egg salad sandwiches are made with of hard-boiled eggs mixed with mayo softly sandwiched between two slices of milk bread. This egg sandwich is incredibly popular. Normally, they are sold almost everywhere and for good reason, sandwiches are so creamy and delicious.
Ingredients
In comparison to the American-style sandwich, a sandwich is much simpler. This sandwich recipe only has three main ingredients— bread, mayonnaise, and boiled eggs. It doesn’t have any added lettuce, tomato, etc.
- Milk Bread: Japanese egg sandwiches use extremely soft and pillowy milk bread. This bread is subtly sweet, milky, and incredibly soft. You can make your own milk bread or pick some up at an Asian grocery store or bakery. However, you can also substitute this with regular white bread or brioche.
- Eggs: Boiled eggs are the main ingredient for this egg sando. Importantly, make sure not to use old or expired ones!
- Mayonnaise: the essential ingredient for this sandwich recipe. Mayo tastes light, subtly tangy, and rich and will make all the difference in flavor. You can find mayo at most grocery stores or online.
- Salt: brings out the natural flavor of the eggs.
- Butter: make sure your butter is at room temperature. The butter flavors the bread and helps hold the egg sando together.

Tips for the Best Japanese Egg Sandwich
- Use Milk Bread. You can make your own milk bread at home. Alternatively, buy it sliced at your local Japanese grocery or bakery. If you can’t find milk bread, substitute it with the softest white bread.
- Mash the egg yolks separately first. Mixing the egg yolks first with the other ingredients ensures you’ll have a thoroughly blended, silky-smooth texture.
- Don’t skip the butter. It acts as a barrier between the eggs and the bread that prevents the sandwich from getting soggy.
Storage Instructions
You can store the egg salad separated from the bread in an airtight container. Keep it in the refrigerator for up to a week.
If the sandwich is already assembled, you can wrap it. Place it in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
