The Scotch egg, a boiled egg wrapped in sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs and baked or deep-fried, can now be enjoyed as a completely plant-based version in hundreds of Tesco locations thanks to Squeaky Bean’s vegan Scotch egg. The company worked with liquid plant-based egg replacement brand Crackd and used The No-Egg Egg to create the filling for the product, which looks convincingly yolk-like. Wrapped in plant-powered sausage meat, the vegan product is sold in sets of six.
Squeaky Bean creator and brand manager Sarah Augustine says, "You might have thought plant-based food lovers have it all now that vegan versions exist of many meat and fish products, from chargrilled chicken-style pieces to fishless fingers. Yet alternatives to products containing egg are harder to find.”
