Eggylicious Whole Egg Powder, Dried Natural Protein Powder, Made from Fresh Eggs, White and Yolk Mixed, Pasteurized, Non-GMO, No Additives, Used for Baking Icing, 1lbs (16oz)

I keep eggs in the house and often go through 12 or 18 in the course of a two week period, sometimes more. I started to investigate powdered eggs in the hope that they could reduce my grocery bill. No, that doesn’t seem to be the case, the per unit cost of fresh eggs is lightly lower than the per unit equivalent of egg powder. But then I realized that I use eggs for a lot of purposes (direct cooking, but also baking and battering foods), plus powdered eggs ARE cheaper than the freeze dried eggs I use while camping. I decided to buy some powdered eggs after all, just to be able to save my fresh eggs for direct cooking. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t try cooking these, so I’ve tried scrambling them and making them into an omelette. The flavor is actually really acceptable; if I have to say something, they’re maybe just a little bland (nothing salt and pepper can’t fix, though). In addition to omelettes and scrambled eggs, I’ve used them for breading, which worked just fine.Now, nothing will replace fresh eggs for me, but I think I’ll keep some powdered eggs in my pantry. It’s a great just-in-case food, and it’ll save money for camping, too (not to mention bulk). Plus, it’ll help me stretch my fresh eggs that much further, and it would work well in case of a power outage that causes my fresh eggs to spoil.

Product as described.

I live in the boonies and its not always easy to get to a store. This product makes up and works eggs-acktly like fresh eggs. I don't use them to eat as scrambled eggs but they do work egg-ceptionally well in baking. I never run out of eggs when it matters because I can just add some powder to some water and whip it up. Unfortunately, this company is slighting its customers. Weighing the unopened container shows me that it weighs 15.5 ounces, not 16 as promised and that is the gross weight with the container, not the net weight of the product. The container, empty is 2 and 5/8 ounces or 73 grams. This means that the product net weight is 13 ounces not 16 ounces. The weight is a lie. For the price, I egg-spect the full weight. I will not order from this company again based on this deception.

Dried whole eggs are handy if you use eggs just occasionally. They keep much longer than fresh, and they cook up like fresh eggs. (Except in recipes separating whites and yolks!)I've used a few brands. This is a good-quality example.Quirk: One-pound Eggylicious jar I'm now using is labeled with inaccurate mixing proportions. In fact the same misinformation is on this Amazon product page, above, in manufacturer's Q&A section: "One tablespoon of whole egg powder is equivalent to one whole egg." That's WRONG, and the manufacturer admits as much implicitly, in other label information. Read on:For one egg's worth, label calls for "1 Tbsp (15 g)." The Nutrition label also is based on a one-egg portion size of 15 grams powder. The one-pound jar contains 30 such 15g portions (about 30 eggs in dried form).Problem is in that "1 Tablespoon" claim. A US measuring tablespoon is one-half fluid ounce, about 15 milliliters (ml). 15 ml of water weighs 15g. 15 ml of powdered eggs does not weigh 15g, because the powder is much lighter than water. To get 15g for one egg, you need about THREE measuring tablespoons of the product I received.I weighed out two eggs' worth (30g) of powder for a recipe: it exactly filled a 3-fluid-ounce paper cup. So, each egg's worth (15g) is about 1.5 fl-oz or three tablespoons.And the manufacturer knows that, implicitly. 30 eggs' worth at 1.5 fl-oz per is 45 fluid ounces, almost a quart and a half. Which IS the size of the jar it's shipped in. Yet whoever wrote up the label instructions (and Q&A info above) didn't check that "one tablespoon" claim against these other facts. The label needs to change, recognizing that 15g (one egg worth) is a much larger volume than "1 Tbsp."A cooking tip, with any powdered whole eggs: To use reconstituted liquid eggs, mix the powder with water in advance and let sit 10-20 minutes before using. It needs time to fully integrate (the mixture also thickens slightly). I find that one egg's worth (15 grams) needs around 2 fl oz (55-60 ml) water to yield a consistency like fresh eggs.For baking, pancakes, etc., with dry ingredients, it's simpler just to mix the powder with those, sifting if needed to eliminate lumps.

I mixed the egg powder with a real egg to doubled the portion and the taste was like eating 2 real eggs. No noticeable flavor and texture other than real egg. So product is good. The purpose of buying was to take into the bush portaging allowing for less weight etc..., but ordered on July 10 and paid extra for 2 day express shipping, but did it was not shipped until July 13, and not receive until July 27th. My trip was starting on July18 so I advised the Supplier that this shipping time was unacceptable and requested they cancel the order. They responded very quickly and offered a refund which has been received. Appears that the Supplier ignored expediting shipping and Border Customs additionally held up the order. But the Supplier did honor the refund and therefore I gave them 4 star. I recommend you order way in advance of your need for this product.
