for baking, I mix 1 tsp psyllium with 3 Tbsp room temperature water and let it sit for about 5 minutes (or until an egg-like viscosity)
psylli-egg has a more neutral texture and flavor than a flax or chia egg. unlike flax it won’t go rancid (I’m still using a large bucket of it that’s years old and hasn’t changed flavor or effectiveness). its only real downside is it takes slightly longer to hydrate
I personally wouldn’t try to replicate a shakshuka or anything with it but if you try let me know how it goes haha
My wife is vegan so we do a lot of vegan baking, especially around the holidays, but we also don’t stock eggs or dairy in the house anyway.
So usually we are using applesauce as an egg supplement. I never liked flax in general, but I do keep chia and fiber supplements around (especially since starting Adderall), so that’s good to know.
You saying I can crack open some fiber capsules for an egg substitute?
In baking, in many cases, yes
For an omelette, no
