Sous Vide Pasteurized Eggs
Since raw eggs are used in many sauces, Sous Vide Pasteurized Eggs is in the "Spices, Rubs & Sauces" category. Pasteurized eggs will still have the consistency of raw eggs and can be stored in the refrigerator after pasteurization. They can be used just like any egg so if you need just the whites, you can separate the egg yolks from the whites and have pasteurized egg whites. Always pasteurize your eggs when making homemade mayonnaise or anything with "raw" egg in it.

Notes
Sous Vide set the temperature to 135ºF and allow them to pasteurize for 75 minutes. This lower temperature keeps the protein of the egg white more intact and the longer pasteurization time further reduces the risk of pathogens.
