Any Home Bakers Here?

We definitely do the feast to famine around here.
I would like to know how to do that too.
You do not have to worry about bacterial contamination?

I do not worry. But that does not mean others wont. I am sure the FDA would not approve but you can dehydrate at higher temps if you like.

The army has egg powder and I am sure ppl were weird about dehydrating meats too.

I crack the eggs into my standing mixer and whip them till they are fluffy.


I line the dehydrator trays with press and seal cling wrap
I put the fluffy egg onto the trays and dehydrate them until they are crumbly looking some of the egg is not fluffy and dries solid I keep them in the dehydrator until they egg is completely dry


then I add all the trays to the blender and crumble to a powder.
I store it in a zip lock bag but would use a food sealer if I had one.

To Re Hydrate
1Tbsp of Egg powder
2Tbsp water
quick stir and let sit about 5 min then use as any egg.

Perfect!

My dehydrator has an insert for liquid--I use it to make fruit leathers. It would work great for dehydrated eggs!

Zip lock bag in the freezer?

Oh ps
Some people have said they cook the eggs then dehydrate to kill bacteria.
I did not choose this since I have never baked with scrambled eggs before.

Really? Wow, how long do they last that way?

Another reason for me to get a dehydrator!!! I also need canning equipment lol, i have a food saver (vacuum sealer) which works great but i run out of room. My husband bought that for me and year before last he bought me a deep freezer for my birthday best present ever (beside our kids).

I still have a bit from last year that I am still using I like the fresh eggs because I like over easy and DH likes sunny side up those I have not tried to dehydrate. so I stop using when eggs pick up again.

I dont have a time line because I am not sciencey. I dehydrate the garden and we usually dont have much left over of anything to say it gets old or gross after so long.
