  • Patent number: 6348230
    Abstract: An egg concentrate having a higher percentage of solids relative to whole eggs. A liquid yolk component is mixed with a dried albumen component to form the egg concentrate. This can be reconstituted by mixing it with water, and this reconstituted egg product can be used itself as a food product, or mixed with other ingredients to make such things as bakery products, mayonnaise, etc. In one preferred embodiment, the concentrate is combined with an ingredient or ingredients (e.g. sugar and/or salt) to lower its water activity and make the concentrate shelf stable for relatively long periods (e.g. 2 months or much longer). In an alternative embodiment, another procedure is employed where a similar result of the dispersion of the powder in the yolk component is accomplished.
