A friend is making eggnog which uses 6 dozen egg yolks. :o I offered to take those pesky egg whites off her hands so now I'm looking for recipes, ideally ones that freeze well.

Meringue shells? I know I've frozen those in the past.

I also thought of coconut macaroons but don't know if they'd freeze well or not as I've never tried it...nor have I made them in ages.

I foresee a lot of meringues in your future.

Fluff cakes

6 egg whites

1 cup sugar

1/2 pint cream

1 tsp. vanilla

Beat egg whites 30 minutes add sugar very gradually.beat more. Drop the mixture from a spoon about 3 inches apart, on a well greased wax paper placed on a baking sheet. Light oven as you place cakes in. Bake very slowly about 40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream, put the cream on top of cake and another cake on top of that.

Recipe does not give oven temperature but I'd use temp advised for meringues.

This is from a 1930's Creole cookbook.

Yes, but not for very long, and this is 6 dozen egg whites....

Those meringue type cookies look good. I'll start sampling whiskey for flavoring straight away!

I'd try adding cocoa to the meringue cookie or the whipped cream. Also might add coffee extract.

I'd try orange liquor as well as sherry or bourbon...toss winter fruit in Cointreau and simple syrup and pile in the meringue.

Why not some macarons (as opposed to macaroons which are entirely different) as well? You can make tons of flavours - just google for hundreds of recipes. They are delicate, very French and naturally gluten free. Popular in bakeries. They also freeze (I would freeze without the fillings).

This looks easy.

I don't have a recipe offhand but if you like chili rellenos they are made in an egg white batter....

Hey Jestgar,

Ask her not to pollute your six dozen egg whites with any yolk if you're doing meringue.

There's a chocolate pie in a meringue pie shell that you make with 3/4 cup melted chocolate chips and whipped cream on Allrecipes, maybe My Mom's Favorite

Chocolate Pie. It was posted on the forum and is absolutely to die for, especially if you add a bit of dark chocolate to the chocolate chips and substitute Gran Marnier for the vanilla. And there's Pavlova to consider...

You're right though, those recipes only took 2-3 egg whites. I think you could refrigerate them for awhile (4 days) and make some nice omelets or scramled eggs too. I wonder if you can make egg foo yong with egg whites, what an interesting dilemna. (Personally, I find anything with bean sprouts and shrimp delicious, if you stuck some egg white in there, it would be even better.)

I plan to help her so I'll save the pristinest egg whites for me, and cook up anything with yolk bits in it for the chickens.

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
