Olive oil is healthier and can be used for spreading.

Place the eggs in a saucepan and add enough water to cover them.

Bring the water to a boil over medium heat.

Once boiling, reduce the heat and boil 2 eggs for 7 minutes for soft-boiled and the rest for 10 minutes for hard-boiled.

Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water and let them cool.

Peel the eggs.

Mash the hard-boiled eggs in a bowl with a masher or fork.

Add mayonnaise, yogurt, vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the mashed eggs.

Mix well and adjust the mayonnaise to your preference for creaminess.

Spread Japanese mustard on one slice of bread.

Add a layer of egg salad on top of the mustard.

Place a soft-boiled egg in the center and cover it with more egg salad.

Place another slice of bread on top and gently press down.

If the sandwich won't stay closed, wrap it in plastic wrap and let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing.

Slice the sandwich in half and garnish with parsley.
