Fingers get very messy from the butter. But it’s still very good.

After you guys mentioned that the American Kewpie is different than the Japanese Kewpie, I took a look at what I had. Interestingly, the Kewpie I bought at Costco (little bottles shaped like the traditional Kewpie bottles but much firmer plastic) says that it’s made in America but the Kewpie I bought at Walmart (larger bottle made of thinner, floppier plastic) says “Product of Japan”. So, look around, different places might have different Kewpies!

In reply to Frank Godek. I'm so envious of you Frank! I love Don Quixote in Honolulu!

With the exception of the use of shokupan, this is exactly the recipe that my daughter and I developed a few weeks ago. We started using Kewpie Mayo about a year ago. Here in Hawaii, it’s readily available at Walmart. Anyway, we love these sandwiches. Next time I am at Don Quijote, Marukai, or at Ala Moana where they have two Brug Hokkaido bakeries, I’ll grab some shokupan to see if we can make it even better!

In reply to Margaret P.. Good point Margaret! I think American Kewpie mayo doesn't contain any msg and that's why it tastes so different. Thanks for sharing your tip, I will also make sure to double check where it's from next time I buy it! :)

If you can get shokupan or make it, you will get the authentic taste. But a word to the wise. This surprised me the most! I went to my local grocery store and was glad to see that they were selling Kewpie mayonnaise. When I made my egg sando, there was something missing in the taste. Lo and behold, the Kewpie mayonnaise was made in USA not Japan! Tasting the mayo on it’s own, there was the culprit to may odd taste. Just an FYI, when you buy Kewpie mayo, make sure it’s made in Japan or follow Pickled Plum’s recipe.

I love to cook

But i really need to eat more healthy foods.
And i always have been drawn to Asian way of cooking or any meal cooked full of flavor and more vegetables.
