Japanese Egg Salad Sandwich (Tamago Sando)
I'm going to show you my take on the world-famous tamago sando, plus how to make a version of a mayonnaise so addictive, it literally has a cult following. If that wasn't enough, I'm also going to tease an upcoming video for the world's most critically-acclaimed white bread.

Chef's Notes:
I used Dijon mustard for the Kewpie-style mayonnaise, but regular yellow will work. Also, if you have any MSG laying around, or Hondashi(R) (which is a powdered dashi base), you could add some of that for some extra savory-ness, but this version is very savory as-is.
You can use milk instead of cream to make the egg salad.
Here's the recipe for my Milk Bread, which is perfect for this sandwich.
Editor's Note:
Nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of Kewpie-style mayonnaise. You will have enough left to make another batch (2 more sandwiches).
