Egg whites are the clear, protein-rich component of eggs, separated from the yolk. They are a versatile ingredient commonly found in global cuisines, from Western baking recipes to Asian stir-fries and desserts. Composed primarily of water (about 90%) and protein (around 10%), they are low in calories, fat, and cholesterol, making them a popular choice for those seeking a lean protein source. Egg whites are packed with essential amino acids, supporting muscle repair and growth, while being virtually free of saturated fats, which can benefit heart health. However, they lack many nutrients found in the yolk, such as vitamins A, D, and B12, along with healthy fats and minerals like iron. Egg whites are ideal for preparing low-fat dishes or for individuals with dietary restrictions focused on reducing cholesterol intake. Whether whipped into meringues or scrambled, they offer clean nutrition with minimal fat content.
