Freeze Dried Eggs-- Fried eggs, Scrambled Eggs, Hard Boiled Eggs

Today, we are revisiting a favorite for freeze drying....Freeze Dried Eggs. We are doing freeze dried scrambled eggs and including a rock solid ratio recipe (2 tbsp egg powder + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg) that can be used for baking, cooking and anything you could use an egg for. We are also freeze drying 40 whole eggs in a tray and 20 whole eggs in a tray using our tray dividers from
www.freezedryingsupplies.com
Last, I am trying to get freeze dried hard boiled eggs to rehydrate so I can enjoy a freeze dried egg salad sandwich anywhere and anytime. I tried dicing the hard boiled eggs this time and found it to be perfect! The eggs are so inexpensive, taste great and they are easy to rehydrate (the trifecta of freeze drying). Rehydrating a freeze dried fried egg can, however, be a little tricky.

Love your work. I have a hint on the eggs. I watched "Phil at 4800 feet" and he discussed the problem of raw scrambled eggs having an inconsistent or lumpy texture after being reconstituted from freeze drying---you mentioned this similar thing when you reconstituted yours. He said that a food science professional taught him a trick to prevent that problem. Add 1 ts. of salt to every one cup of raw scrambled eggs (4 eggs is typically 1 cup) and your reconstituted eggs will retain a smooth texture after being freeze dried and reconstituted. He tested it out on the video and it proved to be true. Perhaps some viewers will appreciate that hint.

[@live.life.simple.]

that's a great tip thanks

[@kerrylawson7515]

That seems like a lot of salt for 4 eggs. Am I just an under-seasoner?

I don't know for sure except that "Phil at 4800 feet" is about as scientific, detailed and methodical as I've viewed and he did taste test it afterward against non-salted and didn't mention anything about too much salt. Maybe there's something about the freeze drying that impacts the saltiness? IDK.

Here's a thought Brian , separate yolks and whites. I keep a mason jar of each in case the wife is baking and needs just the white or the yolk. .

[@DeannaHerald]

Also you could rehydrate separately. If the white isn't stealing the moisture from the yolk, it may absorb more moisture. Then recombine and cook. I'd love to see a silicone poaching cup, with the pot lid on, to see if would steam it better.

[@1100wing]

Have you ever tried to rehydrate anyting in a vacuum sealed container? Put one or two of the eggs with the required amount of water into a pint jar and vacuum seal them. The vacuum may help draw the water deep into whatever it is you're trying to hydrate.

[@aj884]

Great idea! 👍

[@gen81465]

Another idea is to take a small metal pin and make a series of holes in the freeze dried yolk before you try to rehydrate it. It will allow the water to seep in a bit better.

[@chemicalcorrosion]

Hello everyone! These dividers are AWESOME for eggs. I’ve been putting 4 cups of raw blended eggs in each tray. This came out to be around twenty eggs(your mileage may vary-I used varying sized eggs from my chickens). The divers made really nice squares. No sticking at all. Doing the math, 20 eggs per tray, 40 squares means 2 squares will be 1 egg. Easy to calculate for recipes.

[@gregkral4467]

The freeze dried eggs sure come in handy, especially when you run outta money for whatever reason, just open a package throw in blender.... or mortar and pestle, and boom.... eggs, add the water, keep on cooking and baking.

[@MoovinOnEstateSales]

We have 10 dozen, raw, scrambled eggs in our FD right now! We've always water glassed our eggs starting at the end of every Spring so we'd have them during the winter in case our hens don't provide enough. Water glassing is so messy and if you bump the containers you can crack eggs inside and it gets really gross. We had 2 five gallon buckets full, we're excited to get them all freeze dried! Another advantage of FD over water glassing is that the eggs will last so much longer, I never keep our WG eggs longer than about 9 months, whatever we have left come the next summer we give to the pigs and chickens. Sorry pigs & chickens, no eggs this summer!

Have you tried making meringue with freeze dried whites? I don't know if the heat would prevent them from whipping up. But I might be able to turn the heat down. I was thinking about separating eggs and drying them for different recipes that use only the white or the yolk but usually when I do eggs I just scramble them for the ease of it.

[@maryjane-vx4dd]

I"m going to try chopped hard boiled eggs. What I would like to see is a video where the whipped yolks and writes are done separately. Yolks for puddings and what not. Whites to see if they will whip up into a meringue for pies or angel food cake

Rehydrate the egg with the pickle juice instead of wyaer that way you have a stronger flavor and it's not watered down and running.

Regarding the egg yolks....I have frozen whole eggs in my freezer and tried to thaw them and use those in recipes; cookies, banana bread and such. The yolks are never quite right. In fact they look exactly like yours do and they are hard to mix in to whatever I am making. Have you ever tried freeze drying eggs without freezing them first? I know freeze dried freezes them, but maybe it would make a difference and then maybe not!!

I do all this much simpler just put all raw eggs in food processor. When done freeze drying, I powder them now I can use that powder for everything except a whole fried egg which isn't going to be the way Ifry an egg anywaybecausei want a yoke i can dip my toast in. But can steam and make egg salad, Scrambled Eggs, use for french toast, mix in recipes. And all this with no problem whatsoever rehydrating.

[@JRAinKY]

I do something similar. I put a tray's worth of eggs in a large bowl and use an immersion blender to whip them really well and then I pour them in to the tray. Once freeze dried I put the eggs into my food processor to turn into powder and then seal in a Mylar bag or jar with an O2 absorber. Have never had an issue with the eggs being lumpy or the texture being weird.

[@georgearensman6868]

I would like to recommend trying chicken stock to rehydrate many things. It works great for many types of cooking. This is just a thought.

With respect to freezing before going into the freeze dryer, would blast freezing the product instead of freezing in a regular freezer help with the freeze drying process. Also, it is well known that blast freezing meats and other products retains the cell structure and hence the texture and quality over regular freezing. So the big question, do you think that blast freezing product before freeze drying would be advantageous???

[@live.life.simple.]

I have spoken to HR before about blast freezing and they mentioned that they did not notice a difference when testing with it

[@carolclarkson4859]

Pretty impressive results considering there isn't anything else you can do with eggs. I know some people like to try and freeze them, but then comes the freezer burn.

[@flossiesmommydoggo77]

You can preserve fresh eggs (unfortunately not store-bought, because the outer protective coating is washed off at the processing plant😣) by wiping them w/mineral oil, by using a “water glass” (Na2SiO3 - sodium silicate) solution, or by using a “slaked lime” [Ca(OH)2 - calcium hydroxide; also known as “pickling lime”] solution. These can last for months & months & months, & I know that at least w/the Ca(OH)2, you don’t have to worry about temperature variations; you can just keep them in your kitchen or pantry (don’t know about the other two methods). If you later wish to boil/steam the sodium silicate-preserved eggs, you’ll need to poke a pinhole in each shell before cooking, or they’ll explode. 😬 Of course, these methods are NOT for super long-term storage, but are a great way to save up eggs for the winter when hens are laying fewer eggs. 🥚 As to freeze-drying…no one I’ve watched on KZbin has pricked the egg yolks on whole eggs or whole yolks (like w/blueberries); I’m wondering if that might make the biggest difference? As you need a way through which the water can evaporate, & the vitelline membrane that holds the yolk together would stop any such evaporation (or at least allow not much), I’d think a simple prick might yield a different outcome. Might not, of course, but I can’t wait to do many such experiments w/my just-received FD (as soon as I can find someone strong enough to lift it onto the cart…😆), & will update this if I have differing results.

[@lucillemelzer5719]

I wonder if after freezing the whole egg you poked a hole through the yolk if that might help it rehydrate better. By poking a hole in it water can easily get inside to rehydrate. By waiting until after it's frozen you should be able to maintain the whole yolk.

[@kathyharlow9611]

Your Video"s are great... I have a question for you. .soooo Would the yolk & white seperate if you tried to flip the yolk while rehydrating the whole egg? If not I think it could help.

I love watching you freeze dry, did you add any dashes of salt to the eggs or mixtures and also a home tip when making fresh egg salad, use the cheese grater to shred the egg a bit more evenly.

[@melinaz3385]

Oh and according to another food site I read the yolks will always harden because of the proteins when freezing. so they recommended that storing eggs frozen should have salt or sugar added to the yolk mixture to prevent the proteins from binding in the cold. a form of coagulation. SO if you took all the yolks scrambled them separately and added a little salt, then put a tablespoon of yolk in the egg white compartment, you might get a facsimile of an egg. just thinking.

[@KatWilton]
