Good morning folks, simple question for you. What sorts of egg alternatives exist out there? I’m specifically looking for something that I can make an omelette-like type of food with. Something that replicates the egg taste and texture as closely as possible.
I’ve been trying really hard to stick to fully plant based diet. Haven’t had any dairy in weeks or eggs in months. Years since I last ate meat. But lately I’ve been having weird cravings for omelettes because I used to eat one for breakfast every morning.
Thank you
JustEgg is great for omelettes. I also use it to make egg sandwiches with some vegan cheddar. It already approximates the egg flavor and texture out of the container. It’s relatively expensive though, and your local grocery may not carry it.
I always see Kala Namak suggested on the Internet, but I’ve never seen it in the grocery. If you have an Indian grocer near you, they might carry it, otherwise you’ll likely need to order online. I used to try to approximate scrambled eggs with tofu, but I ended up liking the tofu scramble (without Kala Namak) so much that I haven’t had a craving for anything resembling scrambled eggs.
I also used to do deviled potatoes with JustMayo and steamed baby potatoes. My local grocery stopped carrying JustMayo, so I stopped making them 🤷♀️
