Title: meringues from frozen egg whites?
Post by: Anke on May 02, 2018, 12:02:00 pm

Can you freeze egg whites and the later on make meringues (or other stuff) with them? I am trying to tackle the egg mountain and milk lake (preferably in one go, as no time t make cheese right now), and making ice cream, which only uses the yolks...

Experiment - freeze some whites, both whisked and whole.  Thaw out the next day and use them.  See what happens, then let us all know  :yum:

Yes absolutely fine, freeze separated whites no need to whisk first, remember to label how many in each bag or do individually in ice cube trays
