I haven't tried this, so not sure how it would turn out, but a

savoury coconut macaroon, with some herbs, sea salt & grated veges,

instead of sweetener might be interesting....

I make macaroons with my extra egg whites, but I don't add any

sweetener. I use the coconut from Wilderness Family Naturals and

since it's so sweet already, I don't add any sweetener to my

macaroons. My DH loves them. For me, they're a nice protein snack.

WFN does not add sweetener to their coconut, it's just naturally

sweet and totally yummy.

I make regular merengue with white sugar and send them to work with my

husband. His coworkers eat them. I have a hard time throwing stuff out. This

topic has come up several times on this list and last i recall, the best

advice was to toss them.

what to do with egg whites?

So what do you all do with leftover egg whites? I have egg yolks in my

smoothies every morning for brekky and I confess to mostly just throwing the

egg whites away. I tried Sally's meringues a couple of times but they didnt

work and were a hassle - I think I don't have the oven for it. Any other

suggestions?

=============

Filippa,

I use egg whites for baked concoctions.

When whipped to a froth first by an eggbeater, they can be mixed with any

kind of batter to increase fluffiness or height.

Many flourless cakes are made using only eggs. The " cakey " consistency is

strictly from the beaten egg whites. For instance, when I make chocolate

mousse brownies, I first mix egg yolks with melted chocolate and liquid (but

cooled) coconut oil. Then I mix that with beaten, fluffy egg whites. It

makes a glorious batter that is then baked.

The finished product, cooled, is very much like a brownie. If I have extra

egg whites from someplace I add them -- it simply makes the entire batch

lighter.

This is a wonderful solution for people who don't want to eat grain (gluten

sensitivity) but who'd like " bakery " products now and then.

You can also add extra egg whites to scrambled eggs. They don't have as rich

a taste then, but are extremely light.

Finally, in Chinese cooking they coat raw shrimp (and other forms of animal

protein) in egg whites and spices and refrigerate it before sauteeing.

Best,
