Preparation Steps
  1. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and prepare two bowls filled with ice for the ice baths.

  3. Transfer the eggs to the second ice bath and let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
  4. Crack the cooled eggs gently and peel them under the running ice water.
  5. Slice the soft-boiled egg in half for garnish. Chop the remaining eggs into a mixing bowl.
  6. Combine the chopped eggs with Kewpie mayo, Dijon mustard, chives, and a pinch of salt.
  7. Trim the crusts from the milk bread and spread a light layer of butter on one side of each slice.
  8. Lay the soft-boiled egg halves yolk side down on one slice. Top with the creamy egg salad mixture and cover with the other slice.
  9. Slice the sandwich into three pieces for serving. Garnish with shavings of fresh truffles if desired.
