About One cup of egg whites
One cup of egg whites is a versatile and high-protein ingredient commonly used in cooking and baking. Derived from chicken eggs, egg whites are a key component in various cuisines worldwide, from Western omelets to delicate Asian desserts. They contain minimal fat and are cholesterol-free, making them a popular choice for those focused on heart health or weight management. Packed with essential amino acids, egg whites promote muscle repair and growth. They're also low in calories, providing about 17 calories per egg white, or approximately 120 calories per cup. While nutrient-dense in protein, they lack the vitamins and minerals found in egg yolks, such as Vitamin D and healthy fats. Egg whites are free of carbohydrates, making them suitable for low-carb diets, but may be less satisfying compared to whole eggs due to the absence of fats. Easy to prepare, egg whites are a staple for health-conscious eaters.
