Pasteurized Liquid Egg Whites
What it is
This product is made from 99% real egg whites. It is a convenient way to use egg whites without the hassle of separating them from yolks. The liquid is pasteurized, which means it has been heated to kill any harmful bacteria. This process makes it safe to consume without further cooking, though it is often used in recipes that do require cooking. It comes in a carton for easy pouring and storage.
How people cook with it
People often use this liquid egg white product in a variety of cooking and baking applications. It is a versatile ingredient that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes.
- Meringues and frostings
- Scrambled egg whites
- Baking cakes and cookies
To use, simply pour the desired amount of liquid egg whites from the carton. For recipes that call for whole eggs or egg whites, you can substitute this product directly. It can be whisked for recipes like meringues or added to batters and doughs. For a quick breakfast, pour it into a non-stick pan and scramble as you would regular eggs. Ensure any cooked applications reach a safe internal temperature.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh eggs, this product offers the convenience of pre-separated egg whites, saving preparation time. The pasteurization process also provides an added layer of food safety, making it suitable for recipes where eggs might not be fully cooked.
Who it is for
Home cooks and bakers who want a convenient and safe way to incorporate egg whites into their meals and desserts.
How to keep the rest
After opening, keep the carton refrigerated. It is best to use the remaining liquid egg whites within a few days of opening. Ensure the carton is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent contamination. Do not freeze the liquid egg whites as this can affect their texture.
