Have you ever wondered how to make a fake egg? Me neither, but let’s do it.
The only goal was to make something that looked as close as possible to an egg but wasn’t an egg. What I was able to make after a few trials and tribulations wasn’t too bad in my opinion. For this, I thought it would be easiest to make a hard-boiled type egg. Along the process of trying to perfect this, I accidentally found out how to make a fried egg as well, but we’ll get into that a little bit later.
The recipe I am going for will have some gelatin in it, but honestly, I don’t think this is a hard requirement, I am pretty sure you could use agar and end up with a vegan f-egg.
============= Ingredients ==================
I found it easiest to use cups. If you want to make a gummy style candy, here is the ratio:
1.33 cups of liquid to 2 oz (56 g) of powdered gelatin.
For this specific recipe:
.33 cups water
2 oz (56g) gelatin
1 cup milk
Tumeric
4 tablespoons of powdered sugar
