The Economic Times features McCarty on innovative egg substitutes

The Economic Times featured Kate McCarty, food systems professional at the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, in a story about how home bakers can effectively use plain seltzer water as an egg substitute in a yellow cake recipe. Per McCarty’s and UMaine Extension’s guidance, home bakers can substitute a quarter cup of plain seltzer for every egg in a recipe, mixing it into the batter during the same step specified for eggs.
