Abstract: Soft cooked egg products having a runny yolk are prepared by removing the eggs from their shells; cooking so that the egg white has a temperature of no more than about 175° F. and the egg yolk has a temperature of no more than about 150° F.; cooling the egg to an internal temperature of 75° F. or less; sealing the egg in a package; and pasteurizing. Alternatively the shell-less eggs are packaged sealed in a package and cooked so that the egg white has a temperature of no more than about 175° F. and the egg yolk has an internal temperature of no more than about 150° F. The processes are carried out under processing conditions such that the pasteurized, cooked, packaged eggs have runny yolks. Products made by this process are also described.

Abstract: Provided are methods of manufacturing a cooked egg product having irregular shaped egg curds similar in shape, size, and mouthfeel to that of freshly cooked scrambled eggs. Liquid egg product is optionally first preheated then transferred to a belt oven and cooked to form a layer of cooked egg product. The layer of cooked egg product is then transported through an agitator, which initially breaks down the layer of cooked egg product, and subsequently is passed through a forming plate to shape the cooked egg product into irregular shaped egg curds similar in appearance to that of freshly cooked scrambled eggs. This process allows for a simplified ingredient deck and reduces the number of fines present in the final product.
