What can you replace eggs with in any recipe: you will need aquafaba
For those who strive to eat healthy and for one reason or another try to exclude eggs from their diet, aquafaba will come to the rescue. It will also help out when the eggs in the refrigerator simply run out.
As the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova , explained, aquafaba is nothing more than the liquid left after cooking legumes – beans, chickpeas or lentils.
By the way, this is exactly the name of the liquid that remains in the jar after canning peas.
Aquafaba can be whipped into a nice, thick foam, making it ideal when you need to do without eggs.
With aquafaba you can make meringues, soufflés, meringues, marshmallows and lean mayonnaise. It is also a great replacement for eggs in baking.
Aquafaba is low in calories and does not have a specific taste or smell that could be transferred to the finished dish.
If not used immediately, the liquid can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days or frozen in ice cube trays. In the form of cubes, aquafaba can be added to vegetable soups to increase their nutritional value.
