What it is

Dried whole egg is made from fresh eggs that have been carefully dehydrated. The process removes most of the water content, resulting in a shelf-stable powder. This powder can be reconstituted with water to mimic the properties of fresh eggs.

Why it's used

Dried whole egg is used as a binder, emulsifier, and leavening agent in baked goods and processed foods. It adds richness and helps create a desirable texture. You can find it in items like cookies, cakes, pasta, and some meat products.

Health notes

Dried whole egg is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein and other nutrients. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated eggs and egg products. Typical consumption of eggs as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects for most people.

Allergen info

Egg is one of the 9 major allergens recognized by the FDA. People with an egg allergy must avoid products containing dried whole egg.
