Dear Colleagues in Food Science and Technology:
I am pleased to provide you with the enclosed publication, the new Egg-Ceptional Innovations Application Guide, developed by the American Egg Board.
This practical guide was created to assist you in your work by demonstratingthe many ways egg products provide solutions to common challenges in foodproduct development. In fact, polyfunctional eggs can leaven, bind, thicken,moisturize, dry, flavor, glaze, clarify, emulsify, retard crystallization, garnish,color, and add nutrients to your formulations. In addition to improving theperformance of baked goods and other food products, eggs can replace manyadditives on the food label. This appeals to today’s better-educatedconsumers who avoid additives as they seek more natural food alternatives.
In the Egg-Ceptional Innovations Application Guide, you’ll find informationabout how egg products, with their many functional properties, are asimpler, more natural choice than using a host of specific chemical additives.Basic formula recipes, easily adaptable for your product formulations, alsoare provided. You’ll find them organized by recipe types, includingappetizers, sauces, main dishes, and desserts. The guide also contains aglossary of egg functions and key phrases.
We at the American Egg Board hope this guide is indispensable in your workas you explore the versatility and functionality of eggproducts. Should you have questions, require technicalassistance, or would like to receive additional copies ofthe Egg-Ceptional Innovations Application Guide,please contact the American Egg Board at 1-847-296-7043. Or you can visit our Web Site at www.aeb.org.

Appetizers are so popular that consumers often make meals
of them, savoring the opportunity to sample a wide variety
of flavors and textures. Appetizers awaken the senses and
tempt the palate, setting the stage for the meal to follow.
With the demand for a wide variety of appetizers, real egg
products are indispensable in appetizer formulations. Eggs
provide appealing flavor, and help bind ingredients, giving
structure to finished food products. Batters and coatings
adhere better to foods, sealing in flavor and juices, after an
egg wash. And egg products provide freeze-thaw stability.
Best of all, egg products perform all these functions
naturally – all while helping you achieve the clean label
consumers want.

So varied are the main dishes served today that consumers
can dine their way around the globe – from Northern
Italian Egg Fettuccini and all-American Rise & Shine Egg
Sandwiches to Mexican Egg Pies and Breaded Shrimp that
can go Asian or Cajun in a blink of an eye.
The incredible, industrious, indispensable egg is often the
secret behind successful main dishes. Real egg products
bind ingredients in dishes like meatballs and seafood cakes.
Breadings and coatings adhere better to products, such as
shrimp or fish, that first have been dipped in eggs or
brushed with an egg wash. Egg products also function as
protein, commanding a starring role in many applications,
such as Rise & Shine Egg Sandwiches. Eggs add color,
texture, flavor, and nutrients to any main dish, like
golden Egg Fettuccini. And egg products perform in all
formulations naturally, so the label is cleaner.

Sauces and salad dressings bring out the best in the foods
they accompany. Consider tenderloin medallions, salmon,
or asparagus with silky, tart Béarnaise sauce.
Real egg products are common ingredients in many of our
most popular sauces and salad dressings. Eggs are essential
to the emulsification of liquids and oils in the “aises” –
Mayonnaise, Hollandaise, and Béarnaise sauces. They add
color, flavor, and a pleasing, creamy mouthfeel. The
coagulation and gelation functions of egg products thicken
cooked sauces and dressings naturally and also contribute a
creamy texture and rich, pale gold color. And the natural
performance of egg products makes them ideal replacements
for additives that clutter nutrition labels.

Rich Truffles, Crème Brûlée with crunchy caramel, elegant
cakes and tortes, cream puffs and éclairs, frozen custards,
and ice creams – all of these classic desserts rely on a
crucial ingredient – eggs.
One of nature’s most perfect foods is never more essential
than in dessert formulations. Egg products bind, emulsify,
and provide aeration and structure to cakes and cookies.
They coagulate and thicken custards, cheesecakes, and
puddings. In ice creams and frozen custards, egg products
retard crystallization and contribute a silky, creamy
mouthfeel. Perfect truffles are made so because egg
products retard crystallization which threatens the texture,
structure, and mouthfeel of fine confections. They tenderize
and extend the shelf life of baked goods. And eggs give
rich flavor and color to any dessert. Naturally, of course.

Function Description Applications
Adheres ingredients, such as seeds and grains, to food products.
Egg proteins create foam in products resulting in lighter and airier products.
Egg proteins provide the structure and coagulative properties tobind food products together.
Provides desirable brown color to baked products.
Egg whites inhibit enzymatic browning and prevent cloudiness in beverages.
Egg white and yolk proteins change from a fluid state to gel.
Locks in flavor and aroma.
Xanthophyll pigments in egg yolk contribute yellow color to many foods.
Egg white proteins prevent crystallization of sugar and promotesmoothness of chocolate.
Phospholipids and lipoproteins serve as surface active agentsstabilizing oil in water emulsions.
Used universally in baking to improve product appearance. Egg wash gives surface gloss and shine.
Carries and enhances some flavors, and imparts desirable egg flavor.
Improves texture and acceptability of products going throughfreeze-thaw cycle.
Holds moisture in food products to help increase shelf life.
Keeps products from turning soggy.
Provides substantial body and smoothness to foods.
Stable pH.
Keeps starch molecules moist and fresh.
Tenderizes foods naturally, giving a soft surface feel.
Firms up the texture of food products and provides crumbimprovement.
Thickens sauces, gravies, and adds body to achieve productimprovement.
