Abstract
Egg products, particularly low cholesterol products, are pasteurized by contact with hydrogen peroxide at elevated temperature. The pasteurized egg is then contacted with catalase to convert the peroxide to water and diatomic oxygen, and the oxygen is then removed, preferably by in-line vacuum. The process enables the pasteurization of liquid eggs, particularly those based principally on egg whites, sufficiently to provide a storage-stable refrigerated liquid egg product.
