Nutriom OvaEasy Dehydrated Egg Crystals Powdered Eggs, 5.1 oz, Pack of 6

I seldom eat eggs at home, and scrambled is my favorite. And I never keep eggs in the house for cooking. This product is perfect. I do not notice a difference in taste or consistency when cooking, and breakfast great. (The year and a half shelf life is fantastic.

Ok....I am attempting to add some longterm storage to our pantry. I've endlessly searched many products but concentrating on basics, as eggs, butter, cooking oils, milk, etc. Today I received my order of OvaEasy dehydrated eggs. Still skeptical of how the alternative to "fresh" could possibly be suitable, I decided I was opening one of these 12 egg packages "now", my curiosity took over and it was breakfast for dinner time. I made them as package stated (which is just add a little cold water), scrambled them, they cook quicker than fresh eggs, but otherwise exactly the same. Normally, I make omelets, and decided it wouldn't be a fair comparison to see how we would like them if we ate them plain, so I fixed them as directed, took a small taste (unbelievable) then added on top, some green peppers, onions and mushrooms with a sprinkle of thyme (all, which i had just dehydrated in my new dehydrator), and honestly I was shocked, the OvaEasy eggs taste no different than when I fix fresh eggs. I didn't tell my husband, then as we were eating i said "oh, I used my dehydrated veggies". He said, "it taste great" and then I said "yeah, these OvaEasy dried eggs are Amazing.....and so glad I found a product that does what it says. He just looked shocked and went back to finishing his breakfast for dinner!! So, they pass the test, they taste like fresh cooked eggs. These would be great for camping, hiking, adding to prepped meals and storing a bag in your pantry, for when you forgot you used all the eggs this morning and your family now wants you to fix brownies, muffins or cookies, that require one egg!! Happens in our house all the time! Also, eggs have skyrocketed recently, so when searching for dried eggs, the prices were shocking to me and my budget. These OvaEasy eggs were a better price per egg than most brands, and I am so glad I tried this product, found a "Winner" and feel secure that I can have long storage eggs for my family. Amazing! I'm still shocked !

These are good, but I feel that you need to use more powder than specified in order to get really creamy scrambled egg-like eggs. But if you use like 25% more powder than specified, and create a thick slurry instead of the watery thin one specified in the instructions, you can get some very creamy scrambled eggs with good body. The taste is good either way. The packaging is a little inconvenient; once you open the package, it is not resealable so you have to put it into a ziplock bag to keep the remainder fresh. It would be nice to be able to mix in the bag but if you add the specified amount of water to hydrate the entire bag, it becomes very difficult to mix it effectively because of the bag shape, size, and material, so you end up with lots of 'clots' of unmixed powder. If you mix vigorously outside of the bag then you can get good mixing and good results. The 'paste' that results is sticky and tends to get all over everything and is not the easiest to clean, but in the end, there is no way to have eggs this good from a dry product otherwise so these small deficiencies can be easily overlooked.

I buy several packs of these a year, specially for backpack camping where I can't take eggs with me. I've tested out a few brands (bought these and three other brands) and these taste the best after doing a side-by-side cook-off at home. I made simple scrambled eggs. They aren't exactly like fresh eggs, but pretty darn close. I think you notice the difference because you're expecting a different taste. Especially if you're eating them straight-up, like if scrambled, alone with nothing else. When I make bread on my camping trips, this stuff is perfect for pancakes, and pita bread. In that case, you really can't tell any difference at all. When making scrambled eggs with onion, peppers, mushroom, and some hot sauce, it's hard to tell the difference. You have to be very careful with your water measurements to get good scrambled eggs. I've found that letting them soak in water for about 5 minutes before starting to make scrambled eggs helps them completely hydrate.

Ova Easy are by far the best tasting dried eggs that I've ever had and I keep them on hand at all times. Whenever I need an egg for either a meal or a recipe, it's simple to just mix a couple of tablespoons with water and there you go. Since I sometimes make very small batches of things like waffles, it's really awesome to be able to measure 1/4 of an egg (for example) instead of making more than I can use and having to store leftover batter or waffles. For camping or backpacking I can't imagine a better alternative if you want to have eggs as part of a meal. I would not hesitate to serve them to anyone at all, knowing there is no way you can tell these from an actual egg. Because it is actual egg. The crystal form of this is far better than various powders because it mixes very easily with the water! This cannot be overstated: it is the key to these eggs imho. The crystal shape of Ova Easy will absorb the water while inferior powdered egg will make the water bead frustratingly even when you mix it hard. Worth the money because you get what you pay for.

Great taste very good quality

Well, color me impressed. These actually do cook and taste like the real deal. You mix it with water and cook it in a skillet like you do real eggs. I suppose in a blind side-by-side taste test some people might be able to tell the difference, but it still tastes good regardless. You don't have to mix the whole pack all at once, but only as much as you need, and store the rest of the powder without refrigeration. Not sure how long the powder is good for after opening, but the expiration date on the pack is Nov 10, 2018. With a shelf life of 2 years 9 months, this would be good to have around for camping trips, or even for a bit of 'prepper' backup food. It's never a bad idea to have at least a few weeks worth of emergency food around that does not require refrigeration. Just ask the people who went through Katrina or Sandy.

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME. Bought this product for a cyclo-camping trip. I cooked some up at the house before our trip and fed it to my husband.....who without prompting or questioning....told me the scrambled eggs were real good that morning. When I told him that it was the OvaEasy, he could not believe it. We are a trucking couple, and we will be carrying this product in our truck now, as opposed to regular eggs. Mixes with water super easy with no lumps. We added dehydrated mushroom, green peppers, onion, and cheese to the powder and made camp food breakfasts on our trip. Cooks up just like regular scrambled eggs and truly tastes like the real thing. My husband thinks they taste better than real eggs. If you are on the fence about which powdered egg product to order, you should just buy these. You will be pleased with the product.
