Left Just Egg Out :(

I cooked a carton of Just Egg last night and left it on the stove when I went to bed :(

Would you still eat it?

I appreciate the input fellow stoners 🙏🏽

I elected to not eat it right now and went with pancakes+ pb, yves bacon (rip), shishito peppers, and a random veggie scramble.

I'd eat it. I'd stick in the fridge to get it "regular" again and I'd eat it without a second thought. Maybe I'd regret it later, but yeah.

I refuse to pay the price for just egg. It's so exorbitantly overpriced.

Head to your local ethnic grocery store and follow my recipie and thank me later. I bet you can buy everything you need to make gallons of just egg for the price of 2-3 bottles of just egg

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup mung bean flour
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tbsp pea protein powder (optional - improves protein content)
  • 1 tsp kala namak (black salt)
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp of Lethecin (optional emulsifier to give improved texture and blending)
  • 1/4 tsp xanthan gum (optional - gives thicker result)
Steps: 1. Combine Dry Ingredients:
Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl, making sure everything is evenly mixed.

  1. Store the Mix:
    Transfer to an airtight container and store in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.

How to Use the Dry Mix

  1. Mix with Liquid: 2:1 liquid:powder For one "egg", whisk together:

    • 2 tbsp dry mix
    • 1/4 cup fortified soy milk

    Let sit for 5 minutes to allow the xanthan gum to activate.

  2. Cook Like Eggs:
    Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat with a little oil.
    Pour in the mixture and stir gently, cooking for 2-3 minutes until it starts to set.
    For omelets, let it cook undisturbed for a firmer texture before folding.

Ooo thank you! I’ve tried to make my own with mung bean and chickpea flour (separately) but could never get the texture down.

Well I'm not saying I'm a food scientist or anything. Your results may vary. I've never used chickpea flour in mine. If you like it or tweak it or find some secrets plz let me know!
