Secrets in Making a Great Egg Mayo Sandwich
Remember, to make a creamy and rich egg mayo sandwich; you need high-quality eggs. We recommend free-range eggs where you’ll get a deeper flavour and a richer colour. Next, always separate the egg white and egg yolk! By separating them, you can season the egg yolk mixture better and achieve that smooth and creamy texture easier. Lastly, it’s always best to use Japanese mayo. Japanese mayo is only made with egg yolk, and so it provides a richer flavour and a custard-like texture.
