So...I've pausterized 5 super fresh eggs at 55C for 2 hours to use egg whites in a dessert where they won't be thoroughly cooked (hot syrup added). As I've started cracking them - the egg white is very cloudy and the yolk is somewhat gel like (when broken will run, but much thicker than a regular one). After reading through this whole topic, I'm questioning (1) How well the egg white will whip and hold it's shape, (2) are the egg whites truly pasteurized and safe. 

 

I guess, to be truly safe, I'll use dried egg whites, but that is no fun because (a) I couldn't find organic ones, (b) I can still taste them in the final product even with vanilla((, (c) I forgot how much liquid I was adding to them that worked perfectly (as websites differ slightly in their recommendations).
