Topic: products with hidden egg... Posted: 26 January 2008 at 8:36pm |
hi ladies
I just dished a nice bowl of Kapati ice cream lemonmerage flavour! for DH and thought out of curiosity would look at the ingredients and it has egg in it....so thought to be on the safe side that I better have a toffee pop instead  (and I wonder why my shorts hardly fit!)  anyway.....can you eat things like this with egg in it but frozen?  are there any other products out there with hidden egg aside from mayo etc?
thanks ladies

Wow, I'm not sure about the ice cream, but I know that commercially prepared mayos etc. are safe coz they are heat treated and have preservatives. It's only fresh mayo that's a no-go, as is fresh hollandaise, bearnaise etc. sauces.

Soft serve is powdered egg so safe from that perspective but it's the way it's stored in the machine that makes it not safe, as well as the potential for bacteria growth in the machine due to poor cleaning.

You would think it should be ok as its been frozen at the wrong temp to grow bacteria.

I guess it depends how the ice creanm is made too, is the egg cooked prior to freezing or is it raw. It's the raw egg that is part of the problem, rather than any egg, as well as storage and handling. Good icecream is generally made with a cooked egg custard, but i guess it's up to you how you interpret that risk.
And I agree lemon meringue Kapati ice cream is the best

If it's been cooked it's generally fine.
Listeria can grow even at freezer temps, the only thing that kills it is heat/cooking.

I guess all things with custard are another thing to beware as custard has eggs to filled donuts, truffles etc are out.
Also tiramissu has raw egg in it.

Custard is OK as long as it's hot as the egg is cooked.
