Have you used Powdered Egg?

Post by Youcantseeme »

I am looking at the idea of powdered eggs as an item for my supply cupboard. Has anyone regularly used powdered eggs in the past or present? If so, where can you get it from at reasonable prices. I am having difficulty sourcing this product in the UK.

I have looked into it, it is not a uk product by what I can see. Powdered egg seems to be a USA thing.

Everything you use real eggs for; except hard boiled, poached or over easy :lol:
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.

So do you mix it with water to rehydrate?

Thanks for the link Su. I have seen this, but it would be more whole egg I was thinking of.

Now what about this DIY?

This was the easiest looking DIY one that I found. I will have a go soon ( although I don't have a food processor so will need to look at a way of doing the final 'whizz' by hand to get the finer powder). Oh and I don't have a dehydrator yet -it's on my Christmas list :D

However, jansman, if you have the equipment then have a go and let us know how you get on!

Well Su, I have the egg supply, but no dehydrator. This I keep meaning to look at. It does seem fairly easy though. Let you know!
