The eggs are blended first. It is very important to get them as blended as possible. They then go onto the fruit roll up trays making sure to not over fill them. They dehydrate at 130 degrees for 8 to 10 hours. They will be fairly but not evenly dry then. They get broken up and blended again. The egg powder is put back onto the trays. I start with 5 trays and after blending they go down to two.

Dehydrate them for another 5 hours or so. I usually dehydrate over night for the first batch and then blend them in the morning and dry them the second time while I am at work.

They will be dry after the second drying and then run them again in the blender. You will get the powder you see in the photo then. They need to go into the vacuum seal because the omega oils in the eggs will oxidize if they are exposed to oxygen.

It is a bit involved but dehydrated eggs are expensive. They are Prepper food after all. They will keep you going for a long time during the Zombie Apocalypse.

Two excaliber dehydrators and I had no clue you could make your own powdered eggs

Thank you Ron!

Do you have any idea of the shelf life if vacuum sealed and stored in food grade bucket?

My hands way up HIGH↑ :-D

Ain't that just the truth.. ought to tell you about the time a couple yrs ago I got a new tracphone with triple minutes when you reload, well why not :-D first reload somehow went on my old phone no longer usable, how I don't know, even different phone #. They said they could switch the minutes but wouldn't be tripled, no not acceptable, I want what I paid for! Took two days, person after person, transferred, retold whole story over and over..., on hold, talk to someone, on hold.. took many hrs of aggravation, couldn't hardly understand them... I seriously think they were reading from a script or postcards or something, I came unglued a couple times, transferred. .. they didn't wear me out and finally straightened it out. Got what I paid for and never happened again.
