Description

Fat-free egg substitute is an ingredient specially formulated to replace eggs in culinary recipes, particularly useful in preparations suitable for low-fat or vegan diets. It is generally presented in powder or liquid preparation form and is designed to mimic the binding and fluffiness properties that eggs provide to baked goods and other dishes.

This substitute is usually made from natural ingredients such as corn starch, tapioca, or plant proteins, which allows for avoiding the fat content present in egg yolk.

The use of fat-free egg substitute is common in healthy cooking and baking for people with dietary restrictions, allergies, or those who choose a vegan lifestyle. It allows for achieving textures similar to those provided by eggs without adding cholesterol or fat.

In different regions of Latin America, this ingredient may be found under synonyms such as egg replacement, egg mix, or simply egg substitute. However, it is important to note that the "fat-free" focus refers to specific versions aimed at those seeking this nutritional characteristic.
