I saw frozen egg whites in the freezer section. From the US...not cheap. They may allay your fears about bird flu...

 

I've only ever used egg whites for meringue. Megamart also have UK eggs...

Just use eggs. How many people do you know who have bird flu, eh? If you're that paranoid about it, buy eggs from somewhere that hasn't been ravaged by bird flu yet.

 

Carrefour was selling Brazilian eggs the other day, I don't think anyone there has started sneezing and flapping their arms yet. I get through half a dozen eggs a day occasionally, and I'm fine :chirp: :chirp: :cough: :splutter:

i just didnt want to use the fresh egg white with all the bird flu scare going around.  do u suppose the meringue powder which i think is dried egg white is pasteurised ??? and where do u get that ? worse if i dont get the powder i'll settle for silverspoons.

I'm not sure you can make meringue without egg white!Could be wrong..... Silverspoon is good stuff, meringue icing is tastier....
