Plain Gelatin = Eggs
Inexpensive Eggs for Food Storage: Eggs are essential basic cooking ingredients, but have a short shelf life—and powdered eggs are expensive. Wendy DeWitt who created food storage recipes for the Mesa LDS cannery said, unflavored gelatin mixed with water makes inexpensive eggs, and “cornbread I made with unflavored gelatin that was over 10 years old was delicious!…1 lb of gelatin will make 192 eggs (16 doz). It’s much cheaper if you buy in bulk; I get mine from bulkfoods.com.”“To Make One ‘Egg’: Stir 1 tsp. Unflavored gelatin with 3 Tbsp cold water until dissolved, then add 2 Tbsp plus 1 tsp very hot water and stir…Decrease liquid called for in your recipe by about ¼ cup to compensate for the added water from the ‘egg’.”
