Pasteurised whole egg
Pasteurised whole egg is a food ingredient made from eggs that have undergone a pasteurisation process to ensure they are safe to consume. It comes from poultry farms where eggs are laid by hens. This ingredient is commonly used in a variety of food products to provide the characteristic taste, texture, and nutrients that eggs naturally offer.
To make pasteurised whole egg, eggs are carefully collected from farms and then pasteurised to kill any harmful bacteria while retaining their nutritional value. The process involves heating the eggs to a specific temperature and then cooling them quickly to eliminate any potential risks of foodborne illnesses. This ensures that the eggs are safe for consumption in various foods.
This ingredient appears on food labels because it adds richness, moisture, and structure to a wide range of dishes. It is commonly found in baked goods like cakes, cookies, and muffins, as well as in breakfast items like pancakes and waffles. Pasteurised whole egg is also used in custards, quiches, and some sauces to enhance their flavour and texture. Its inclusion in food products helps to maintain quality, extend shelf life, and improve cooking performance.
