how to substitute eggs
The Technique. The basic technique for using flax as an egg substitute is clear and straightforward. For each egg youâre replacing, stir 1 tablespoon of finely ground flax seed into 3 tablespoons of cold water. Let the mixture rest for a minimum of 5 minutes, so the seedsâ soluble fiber can form its gel with the water. Large eggs average Â¼ cup each, or 4 tablespoons, so this makes a direct 1-to-1 replacement.
