Hollow out the baguette: First, slice the ends of the baguette and CAREFULLY use a long serrated knife to hollow out the center of the loaf, leaving the half an inch of crust in tact
TIP: longer baguette loaves are harder to hollow out, so I usually cut the longer ones in half and work with shorter loaves
Prepare egg salad by mixing soft-boiled eggs and mayo together.
Spoon in the eggs into the baguette starting from one end, pushing down the filling so that it is well stuffed. Stuff the other side with filling.
Store the stuffed baguettes in the fridge for 30 minutes (up to 1 day) inside a large Ziploc bag or covered container
Slice before serving. The leftover loaf/slices can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. The egg filling inside the bread keeps the bread somewhat soft, even when stored in the fridge.
