Tools to use

  • Netting
  • Measuring spoons
  • Potato Masher

How to create

  • Straight from the fridge 6 eggsinto a pot, fill it with water to submerge the 80%, close the lid, and bring to a boil over low heat for 5 minutes.
    💡 Add 1 T vinegar and 1 T salt together to make it easier to lay the rinds.
  • Then turn the heat to medium and simmer for another 8 minutes.
  • Cool the hard-boiled eggs by placing them in cold water for about 10 minutes, then peel them.
  • Separate the whites from the yolks with a paring knife and crumble them into a fine mesh strainer.
    💡 Straining them through a mesh strainer will give you the smoothest texture, but it can make your arms hurt. Instead, you can whip the yolks in a blender and chop the whites finely to get an almost fluffy texture.
  • Here 2 T mayonnaise, 1 t sugar, 3 pinches salt, and a pinch of pepperand mix evenly.
    💡 Dip a measuring spoon into the softened egg to get a rough measurement, this will prevent the mayonnaise from sticking to the spoon.
  • Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of the bread, then spread half of the prepared egg mayo.
  • Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the bread you'll be covering as well.
    💡 Trim the edges and you'll have a nice, clean, convenience store sandwich.

Caveats & tips

  • Egg white: Protein chunks can get tough and mushy if you run them in a blender for too long, so make sure to chop or strain them in short bursts.
  • Prepare the filling: Make the sandwich fillings ahead of time and refrigerate them for quick assembly in the morning.
  • Adjust sweetness: This recipe is subtly sweet, so if you like it sweeter, try adding a little more sugar.

Closing thoughts

Convenience Store Egg Sandwich Recipeis a soft, moist snack and hearty meal that's easy to recreate at home.
Grinding the eggs through a fine mesh strainer will give you the texture of the store-bought version, but you can also use alternative methods to make them just as delicious.
