Things you need to make vegan eggs
To give the eggs their typical shape, you need a silicone egg mold. These are actually used for making candy eggs at Easter. If you’re lucky, you’ll find them in the baking department of a store, otherwise you can order them online.
A ball cutter is also very helpful for forming the yolk well in the vegan egg white. But you can also use a teaspoon for this.
Vegan hard-boiled eggs made from simple ingredients
My vegan hard eggs are made from normal, standard, very simple ingredients. Protein-rich tofu and soy milk, the latter combined with agar agar, a vegetable gelling agent made from algae. Add some vegan mayonnaise and spices for flavor. The only spice you couldn’t have in the house is kalak namak, also called kala namak or black salt. This sulfurized salt is important for the original egg taste, so it should not be missed. You can get it very cheaply in Indian supermarkets and a little more expensively in large supermarkets or online from the vegan online shop of your choice.
