Dried Egg White Powder
Dried egg white powder is produced by spray-drying liquid egg albumen from chicken eggs, resulting in a fine powder with high protein content. It falls under HTS 3502.19.00.00 as 'other egg albumin' since it is a concentrated form of egg albumin not specifically dried in sheets. This product is widely used in baking and confectionery for its binding and foaming properties.
