by spray-drying fresh

Additional information about egg powder:
Production process: Fresh eggs are broken, the yolks and whites are separated (or
mixed), pasteurized and
then converted into a powder by spray-drying.
Shelf life and storage: Unrefrigerated, it can last for 12 to 36 months. Store in a dry, dark
place.
Nutritional Benefits: It contains the same amount of protein, vitamins (A, D), and minerals
(choline) as fresh
eggs, making it great for health-conscious people.
Easy to use: 1 teaspoon of egg powder mixed with 2 teaspoons of water makes 1 large egg
(large tablespoon).
It's great for making cakes, cookies, muffins, and omelets.
Economical: It is lighter than fresh eggs and is less prone to breakage, thereby reducing
transportation and
storage costs.
Hygiene: Due to the pasteurization process, there is almost zero risk of bacteria like
'Salmonella' growing in it.
