EGGS

Thanks to everyone who came to Food Storage Group (FSG) on Tuesday night. It was a lot of fun!

As discussed, using powdered eggs can be a easy way to incorporate your food storage into your basic everyday cooking endeavors.

Class Highlights...

*never run out of eggs again! The cans come with an average equivalent of 226 eggs (18 dozen) in them.

*They are cheaper-The average price for powdered eggs is $17.00 which makes a dozen eggs 94 cents!

*Very EASY to use. The conversion is 1 T. egg powder + 2 T. water for a medium egg and 2 T. egg powder + 1/4 c. water for an extra large egg. (Remember that there are 16 T. in 1 C. to make multiple egg conversion easier)

*When baking you do not need to re-hydrate the eggs before adding to your mix, simply add the needed egg powder and needed water to your mix and proceed as your recipe outlines!

*You can make a 1/2 egg with out the mess. Translation: halfing recipes calling for an odd number of eggs just got a whole lot easier!

*My favorite…Powdered eggs have been pasteurized, therefore they do not carry salmonella…you can SAFELY eat all the cookie dough you want!!!

So get too it! Dust off those cans hiding down in the depths of your basement...or try out the eggs that you took home, and see what YOU can come up with.
