About Egg albumin

Egg albumin, commonly known as egg white, is the clear, protein-rich liquid surrounding the yolk inside an egg. It is composed primarily of water (approximately 90%) and high-quality proteins like ovalbumin, making it a powerhouse for muscle repair and growth. Low in calories and fat, egg albumin is widely embraced in global cuisines, particularly in baking, meringues, and health-focused recipes due to its versatility. Popular in fitness diets, it provides essential amino acids without cholesterol, found only in the yolk. Egg albumin is a great choice for those looking to boost protein intake, but consuming it raw carries a slight risk of salmonella. Additionally, individuals with egg allergies should avoid it. Its ability to whip into foams makes it a staple in French, American, and Asian cooking. Whether cooked or incorporated into dishes, egg albumin is celebrated for its nutritional benefits and culinary applications.
