About Albumen
Albumen, commonly known as egg white, is the clear, protein-rich part of an egg that surrounds the yolk. It is composed of approximately 90% water and 10% protein, making it an excellent source of high-quality, low-fat protein. Often used in various cuisines worldwide, albumen is a staple in omelets, meringues, baking, and as a binding ingredient in recipes. Nutritionally, egg whites are low in calories and contain essential amino acids, making them a go-to option for those looking to build muscle, manage weight, or reduce fat intake. They are free of cholesterol and almost entirely devoid of fats, unlike the yolk. However, individuals with egg allergies should avoid them. While albumen is packed with nutrients, balance is key, as overconsumption could contribute to protein overloading for some diets. Versatile and nutritious, albumen is a key ingredient in healthy, protein-focused meal plans.
