Aquafaba and the Vegan Diet
Aquafaba is the liquid found in canned or boiled chickpeas that has gained popularity as a vegan egg substitute due to its ability to mimic egg whites in recipes. It is particularly valued in vegan baking and cooking for its emulsifying, foaming, and binding properties. The term 'aquafaba' comes from the Latin words for water (aqua) and bean (faba).
