'Egg Cutlet'

‘Egg Cutlet’

I spoke to my grandmother this weekend and asked her about the powdered egg ‘meals’ as they are not great. However, she did say that although they did use them, they didn’t eat them as per the recipes I am re-creating. Instead, they mainly used them in baking etc, which does make sense. She did tell me though how her mother used to preserved real eggs in isinglass, which is from the swimbladders of fish. Fresh eggs were placed in a bucket with water and isinglass which would keep them from going bad over winter. I wonder if there is anyone out there still doing this? Keeping eggs that little bit longer, is a really good idea.

The egg cutlet, consisted off powdered egg, mixed cook vegetables and oatmeal, formed into patties and fried.
