Notes

Useful Tips

1. Egg and egg whites must be at room temperature.
2. The water must be boiling.
3. The key success here is to carefully control the water. Do not add excessive water.
4. Weight everything using weighing device. I use a scale with accuracy up to 0.01g.
5. Flaxseed powder must be ground to fine powder form so that it can absorb water efficiently.
6. Psyllium husk MUST NOT be too fine as it will reduce its ability to absorb water.
7. Let it cool down completely before serving.
8. Slightly distance the buns apart so that they will not stick together when they expand in the oven during baking.
