Powder looks good to me if the answer really is 6 letters.

I believe powdered egg was more common during the war and has been used by isolated communities since then (eg Antarctic Bases). It is possibly still used by commercial food manufacturers but is no longer widely available to the public (except egg whites for meringues).
