What is egg yolk powder?
Egg yolk powder, also called dried egg yolk, is the yolk alone, without the white. Egg yolk is a natural emulsifier: it holds oil and water together, which is why mayonnaise can stay thick and smooth instead of separating. The powder brings this property, with the color and richness of the yolk, into a dry form that is easy to store.
