Storing flaxseed meal + water egg replacement in frig

[Guest guest]

So often, I'm now using the flaxseed meal + water egg replacement that I've

thought about making a large amount and storing it in the frig. I'm wondering

whether anyone has had any luck doing this. Sort of the like the equivalent of

having a dozen eggs in the frig. If so, how do you then measure it when taking

it from the frig and using it in a recipe that calls for one egg (or more)?

 

Thanks!

This is exactly how we store ours. We keep it in a container and then measure

out 1/4 cup for each egg. Four tablespoons equals 1/4 cup, so it's the same

amount as if you were making an individual batch. It will last a week or a bit

more.

I put my flaxseed mix in little containers and freeze them.  I pull one out each

week to use in baking and let it thaw in the fridge.

Grind 1 part flax seed in your blender. Add three parts water and blend. Store

in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator. 1/4 cup equals one egg in a

recipe.

Kate,

 

You'll find flaxseed is called linseed in Australia (although the oil is called

flaxseed oil).

The flaxseed mix being referred to here is the ground flaxseed meal mixed with

water, is that right?  Is it 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal to 3 tablespoons water?

Any special mixing technique, or just mix and let stand till it's a " gel? "  

 

Thank you!

Jill
