Egg yolk replacement

Solein can take the role of egg yolk in virtually anything imaginable, with minimal environmental impact and no risk of price fluctuation or supply restraints. Solein has excellent emulsification properties, and it can replace egg yolk for example in baked goods, pasta doughs, mayonnaise and sauces.

Solein has outstanding emulsifying properties. Replacing the egg yolk powder in mayonnaise with the same amount of Solein can produces three times more mayonnaise, giving direct cost advantage and more efficiency – without any sardine of taste of texture.
Solein can add texture and richness to a wide range of foods, from sauces to dressings making the foods dairy- and lactose-free without compromises on taste.
Replacing egg yolk in pasta dough with Solein can improve processing performance. Solein makes the dough softer and easier to work with, reducing breakage during handling while delivering a final product that matches the quality and texture of traditional pasta.
