Sandwich Ingredients- 6 slices of bread
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cucumber
- 1/2 onion
- 3 slices of cheese
- 3 slices of ham
Egg Salad Seasoning- 4 Tbsp mayonnaise
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of sugar
- Pinch of butter
- 4 Tbsp mayonnaise
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of sugar
- Pinch of butter
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the cucumber and onion to add crispness and freshness to your sandwich. Thinly slice the cucumber and finely dice the onion. Sprinkle a little salt over both and let them sit for about 10 minutes to lightly pickle. This step is crucial for drawing out moisture, preventing a soggy sandwich, and enhancing the natural sweetness of the vegetables.
Step 2
Perfectly boiled eggs are the key to the creamy texture of your sandwich. Once peeled, mash the boiled eggs thoroughly with a fork or a masher until they are finely broken down. Ensure there are no large lumps for a smooth consistency.
Step 3
Squeeze out any excess water from the salted cucumber and onion by hand. In a bowl, combine the mashed eggs, drained cucumber, and onion. Add 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise, a pinch of sugar, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix everything together until well combined to create a delicious egg salad. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper as needed.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to prepare the bread. To prevent the bread from becoming soggy from the moist filling, spread a thin layer of butter on the inside of each bread slice. Alternatively, you can use a thin layer of mayonnaise. On top of the buttered or mayonnaised bread, layer the sliced cheese and ham for added flavor and texture.
Step 5
Finally, generously spoon the prepared egg salad onto the bread and top with the other slice to complete your delicious egg and cheese sandwich. For a more visually appealing sandwich, consider using yellow cheese slices. Enjoy your creation!
