You'd probably end up with scrambled eggs if you used the whites! When you make chocolate mousse, the whites are used as well as the yolk, but in that cast they are whipped separately and folded in to produce an aerated texture.
I could freeze the egg whites but, tbh other than adding to a scrambled egg or quiche which in not making that often, I would have little use for them other than feeding back to the birds. Meringue is simply something I don't make, no cream to go with it being allergic to dairy; though I could try a cashew nut based one, they are hard to get thick enough and I don't like that amount of sugar. Perhaps I should have said that in the op? Thanks for the suggestion though
It doesn't exist as far as I can tell. The one I found in the health food shop was my favourite one from the UK, but 4 times the price. it had now run out and they don't have anymore and stock is irregular to say the least. Last time I was there they had none, didn't expect any back in and also didn't have any soya cream in, but strangely I can easily get a condensed milk or evaporated milk that are both dairy free made with coconut milk. Both are readily available in the supermarket we do our weekly shop in. I've never seen either in the UK!
Are you referring to almond milk? Almond Breeze is available in Australia.
Sorry, no. The birds eye custard powder. I've not seen any that I'm aware of. Almond breeze I buy when on offer in bulk. AB also comes in a variety of other combinations here as well. In particular there is a combined Almond and cashew nut milk version!
But that's my point. Make it yourself using cornflour (cornstarch), adding vanilla and a little turmeric for colour when you mix in the milk. I'll try it out...
That is very interesting as I was guessing they would curdle.
Maize flour is listed as the ingredient for Bird's Custard (I just checked!).I haven't found what you and I know as cornflour only what the Aussie's know as cornflour which is maize flour to you and I. I could try that and at least it would be yellow but...
Maybe tomorrow I can make custard with sweetcorn?
Tesco's own brand uses cornflour.
Well, can't you just use infused vanilla beans? Perhaps you don't have any. Vanilla essence is simpler.
"Bird's Custard is the brand name for the original powdered, egg-free imitation custard powder, now owned by Premier Foods. Custard powder or instant custard powder are the generic product names for similar and competing products. The product is a cornflour-based powder which thickens to form a custard-like sauce when mixed with milk and heated."Maize flour is listed as the ingredient for Bird's Custard (I just checked!).
