Aquafaba is the perfect plant-based alternative to egg whites in cooking and baking. Made from organic chickpea broth with just a pinch of salt, this versatile ingredient is ideal for creating meringues, mousses, vegan mayo, dressings, and more. Found in canned chickpeas or as the cooking water from legumes, aquafaba has gained popularity as an egg white substitute in vegan and allergen-friendly recipes due to its ability to mimic the texture and function of egg whites. Its applications extend beyond baking to include cocktails and various dishes, making it a valuable addition to any plant-based kitchen.
The term "aquafaba" combines the Latin words for water ("aqua") and bean ("faba"). It rose to popularity around 2014 when home cooks discovered its unique properties. Since then, it’s been embraced globally, especially in vegan and plant-based cooking communities as a sustainable alternative.
