How To Make Tamago Sando (Egg Salad Sandwich) At Home
Tamago sando, or egg salad sandwich, is without a doubt one of the most popular sandwiches in Japan. If you’ve been to Japan, you might have tried one in a convenience store like 7-11, Lawson, or Family Mart. It is an iconic Japanese sandwich that everyone loves!
While there are many variations of tamago sando available in Japan, the most common one is undoubtedly the egg salad version, which is a mashed egg filling dressed with mayonnaise. This may sound quite simple, but once you try it you’ll understand why it's such a fan favorite.
Another point that makes tamago sando so delicious is the kind of bread used for the sandwich. Similar to other sandwiches in Japan, shokupan is used as the bread for tamago sando. If you’re unfamiliar with shokupan, it is fluffy white bread that is light and chewy in texture and melts in your mouth at the same time. You can purchase shokupan in Japanese supermarkets or bakeries, or you can even make it at home using our recipe.
