3. Production of frozen egg
What are frozen Egg ?
Eggs are widely used in the preparation of various processed foods because of their
versatile functions such as foaming properties, heat-induced gelation of egg albumen,
emulsifying properties of egg yolk . To extend the shelf life of liquid eggs, they are
commonly pasteurized, dehydrated, and frozen. The performance and functionalities of
eggs after pasteurization, dehydration and freezing determines the value of eggs in food
products. To improving functional performance of eggs after pasteurization and freezing
would be reviewed. Generally top-quality frozen egg products should be prepared with
appropriately stored fresh shell eggs with low bacteria count, followed by breaking
operations with strict sanitation, temperature control, and rapid freezing operations,
together with application of cryoprotectants.
4. Need of frozen Egg
•Reducing preparation time
while satisfying hunger with
lightning speed.
Frozen whole eggs have a
significantly longer shelf life
compared to fresh eggs.
Beneficial for consumers who
may not use eggs frequently
or in large quantities.
Extended shelf life reduces
food waste and provides a
stable supply of eggs
throughout
Frozen eggs undergo
pasteurization, which
eliminates the risk of
salmonella and other illnesses
Frozen egg products offer
comparable nutritional
content and taste to freshly
produced egg products.
5. Production of frozen egg
Selection of raw materials
Eggs should have low bacteria count .
Candling method can be used to measure the freshness of an egg before breaking.
The pH value of very fresh egg albumen should be generally between 7.6 – 7.9.
Fall in the freshness of eggs is generally accompanied by a decrease in the viscosity and
gel strength of egg albumen as well as a decrease in the foam stability of albumen.
Yolk quality is determined be its shape freshly laid egg yolk should nearly be spherical
when it is broken out onto a flat surface
Frozen egg processors generally desire a darker yolk than do users of table eggs, as
these products are usually used for mayonnaise, doughnuts, noodles, pasta, and other
foods that depend on eggs for their yellowish color.
6. Production of frozen egg
H ACCP APPLICATION
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) process for the production of food
has been adopted. The presence of physical, biological, or chemical hazards in egg
products pose health risks to the consumer and economic risks to the company. Receiving
off-line egg biological hazards, the receiving prerequisite program must address
how biological hazards are evaluated at the point of receiving. Because it takes
too long to get a measurement for microbial analysis. In the case of the
"Receiving Off-line Eggs" the biological hazards are Salmonella. Temperature is
one recognized way of controlling Salmonella growth therefore, the temperature
history and current temperature of incoming eggs should be considered when
evaluating biological hazards for off-line eggs.
7. Production of frozen egg
• Movement of the eggs must be traced from the time they are received
at your facility until they are loaded for distribution.
• An effective strategy is to create a detailed flowchart
• The flowchart should include all areas of egg processing that should be
controlled.
• For in-line operations, the flowchart steps should begin in the
production house and evaluate the movement of the eggs from the
hens into the processing area.
• For off-line operations, the flowchart steps should begin whenever you
acquire the eggs.
• Hazard analysis should also consider off-line production hazards
associated with the eggs received.
9. MICROBIAL ASPECTS: PASTEURIZATION
The Egg Products
Inspection Act led to
regulations requiring
that all egg products,
including liquid egg, be
rendered free from
Salmonella by the
application of
appropriate
pasteurization process.
Pre-pasteurized liquid
egg products be
refrigerated to holding
temperature between
4.4 c for 2 h from the
time when the eggs are
broken,
It requires that liquid
whole egg be heated to
a least 60 C (140 F) and
be held for no less than
3.5 min .
pH values also affect the
successful pasteurization
of liquid eggs. For
example, higher pH
generally requires lower
pasteurization
temperature, as the
alkaline pH of 9.0 is the
most effective for
destroying Salmonella.
Yolk has lower pH and
higher solid content and
hence must be
pasteurized under a
higher temperature than
whole egg
High-energy radiation,
particularly gamma rays,
to pasteurize frozen egg
products results in
destruction of bacteria, in
addition to the benefits of
eliminating the costs of
thawing, heat
pasteurization, and
refreezing.
10. RHEOLOGICAL ASPECTS: MINIMIZING GELATION
REACTION
• Freezing egg yolk to below - 6 C causes an irreversible change in its fluid texture
called gelation
• Thawed yolks would not return to their original smooth texture, but instead show a
higher viscosity with a separation of water as well as a lumpy and gummy texture,
which would not mix well with other ingredients after thawing.
• Emulsifying capacity and emulsifying stability of yolk were significantly reduced
when frozen-stored at - 18 C.
• Yolk gelation seems to be caused by denaturation of the LDL largely presented in
egg yolk.
• Factors, such as freezing and thawing rates, storage temperatures, additives,
homogenization, which influence rate and size of ice crystal formation.
12. Addition of Cryoprotectant:
• Cryoprotectants are compounds that improve the quality and extend the shelf life of frozen foods.
• Variety of cryoprotective compounds are available, including sugars (e.g., sucrose, galactose,
glucose, and fructose, amino acids, methyl amines).
• Frozen egg products, sodium chloride and sucrose at a level of 10% are commonly added to the
yolk to prevent gelation.
• Sodium chloride increases both emulsifying capacity and viscosity however fructose reduces
emulsifying capacity of the thawed yolk.
• Sodium chloride at 2% also prevented gelation, but at 10%, it caused a considerable increase in the
viscosity of unfrozen yolk.
• Yolk with 2% potassium chloride showed very elastic behavior after 36h at - 24 C.
14. FREEZING AND OF EGG PRODUCTS
Rapid freezing is generally beneficial to product quality and also reduces
processing costs.
Air-blast freezers with various designs using cold air as the medium to remove
heat from egg products are the most commonly used freezing systems.
The cooling rate and the efficiency of the process depend on the contact
between the air and the product freezing the concentrated liquid whole egg .
Individual quick freezing is a relatively more advanced design,liquid whole eggs
could first be concentrated using the known techniques such as vacuum
evaporation.
Rapid freezing eliminating the risk of visible gel formation.
15. Blast freezers
• Forced air effectively increases the surface area being cooled to that of
produce inside. Forced air-cooling can reduce cooling times by 10 times
or more, compared to room cooling.
• Air blast freezers are designed to supply cool air over the food
product with a uniform air velocity throughout the freezer
• Products are stacked in such a way that the air is free to move over
the entire product. The stacking method must enable the cold air to
circulate between the trays unhindered.
• Product geometry plays a significant role in determining freezing
time.
16. Production of frozen egg
Vacuum Evaporative Freezing
o Three water-jacket temperatures (40, 50, and 60 C) and
three processing times (30, 45, and 60 min) were evaluated.
o 13.6-kg cans of frozen, pasteurized egg white were supplied
by a commercial egg processor.
o Prior to processing, samples were thoroughly mixed with a
large spoon using a gentle stirring motion
o The vacuum treatments vessel used is a enclosed, stainless-
steel jacketed kettles connected by a stainless-steel header
assembly to a three-stage steam-generated vacuum nozzle.
o The interior of the vessel contained a scraped-surface
double motion agitator.
o Concentrates are then forced through a nozzle to create
droplets, followed by falling droplets into liquid nitrogen
bath where they are immediately frozen.
18. MICROBIAL ASPECTS
• Less than 1% of the bacteria in raw egg products survive pasteurization.
• Microbes found in pasteurized egg products are Bacillus, Proteus,
Escherichia, Flavobacterium, and Gram-positive cocci.
• Freezing kills Escherichia, Flavobacterium, and Gram-positive cocci.
19. Product Performance Aspect
• Ingredients such as non-fat dry milk, whey, vegetable oil, water, gums added to whole egg to
prepare commercial frozen scrambled egg mixes.
• Holding for long periods of time at serving temperatures (at or above 60 C ) the separation of
fluid occurs and a green discoloration due to the formation of the iron-sulfur compound may
occur.
• The problem of greening can be easily prevented by the addition of ingredients such as lime
juice.
• Addition of 0.1% xanthan gum, omelettes that has been steamed for 5 min and then
cryogenically frozen using liquid carbon dioxide (- 79 C) or liquid nitrogen (- 196 C) could
minimize the moisture loss and shear force of frozen omelettes, and provide satisfactory
organoleptic properties.
• Quick freezing at - 196 C with the addition of cryoprotectants, particularly 0.2% polyphosphate,
lowers the damage to microstructure caused by ice crystal formation.

22. Aspects Restraining Sales
Growth of Frozen Eggs?
Misconceptions about Frozen Eggs
Improper Storage & Changes in
Temperature Hampering Frozen Egg
Quality
High Cost of Frozen Eggs Driving
Consumers towards Poultry Eggs
There is perception that frozen eggs
are of lower quality compared to
fresh eggs. This perception
concerns about taste, texture, or
nutritional value.
The market for egg substitutes such
as plant-based egg replacements is
growing rapidly.
These alternatives cater to the rising
demand for vegan and vegetarian
options and offer a similar texture
and functionality to eggs in various
recipes. The availability and
popularity of these alternatives are
expected to pose
competition and impact sales of
frozen eggs.
Frozen eggs require appropriate
storage and transportation
conditions to maintain their
quality. Logistical challenges
such as maintaining the cold
chain distribution network and
ensuring proper storage facilities
at retail locations are encountered
by suppliers, which restricts the
market growth. Any disruption or
mishandling during the
transportation process is expected
to negatively impact the quality
of frozen eggs, leading to
decreased sales.
Frozen eggs have a higher price
point compared to fresh eggs due
to the additional processing and
storage requirements. The cost
factor can influence some
consumer purchasing decisions,
especially in price-sensitive
markets.
Consumers are opting for fresh
eggs due to their perceived
affordability, which is anticipated
to hamper sales of frozen eggs.
23. Eggs have been generally considered as nutritious food. The nutritive values
and various functionalities of eggs make them quite useful for food industry.
To be manufactured into various processed foods, shell eggs are generally
broken into liquid products, pasteurized to eliminate Salmonella, and frozen
for longer shelf life. Appropriate freezing process generally causes only minor
changes in raw egg white. However, freezing egg yolk to below - 6°C (21 F)
causes a irreversible change in its fluid texture called gelation. A variety of
approaches have been developed to minimize the gelation problems
associated with frozen egg products, many of which benefits of addition of
cryoprotectant and rapid freezing on product quality. Functional properties of
the resulting frozen egg products may therefore be only slightly or little
affected by freezing.
