Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Japanese Egg Sandwich
  1. Start by filling a medium-sized bowl with ice and water to create an ice bath. Set it aside.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil. Carefully add the eggs and cook for 7 minutes for medium soft-boiled or 10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
  3. Transfer the boiled eggs into the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them sit for about 2 minutes.
  4. Gently tap the eggs to crack the shell and peel them under running water. Mash the eggs in a mixing bowl, mixing in sugar, salt, pepper, and mayonnaise, adding milk if desired.
  5. Spread unsalted butter on one side of each slice of bread. Spoon the egg salad onto one slice and top with another slice, butter side down. Trim off the crusts if desired.
  6. Cut the sandwich in half diagonally and serve fresh.
