What an Egg Does

Chemistry Lesson for you all. This is something that I learned in high school.
Have you ever craved cookies, but you look in your fridge and you don't have an egg. Never fear, soap is here.

I know it sound weird, "why would I put soap in my cookies?"
In the baking process, an egg combines water and oil to allow the cookie to hold together. Dish soap does the same thing. When you wash your dishes the soap combines the oil on your pans and the water to wash them. 
Now don't go putting a bottle of soap in your batter, but if you put a small drop of dish soap (one for every egg needed) and dilute it with water, which you will need to do, it will work. We consume small amounts of soap off our dishes every day. This is to assure you that you won't get sick from eating the soap.

Hope you enjoy learning about what an egg does.

Stay Sweet,

  1. My favorite egg substitute is:

    1 Tbl ground flax seed + 3 Tbl hot water = 1 egg

    This was a lifesaver when our eldest was allergic to eggs!
