About Raw egg

Raw eggs are a versatile ingredient often used in global cuisines for dishes like homemade mayonnaise, Caesar dressing, and classic desserts like tiramisu. Originating from various culinary traditions, raw eggs are prized for their rich protein content and supply of vitamins such as B2, B12, and A, along with minerals like selenium and phosphorus. They contain healthy fats, and their amino acids contribute to muscle repair and growth. However, consuming raw eggs carries the risk of foodborne illnesses such as salmonella, particularly if not sourced from trusted suppliers. Egg whites are low-calorie and high in protein, while the yolk is nutrient-dense but contains cholesterol and saturated fats, which should be moderated depending on dietary needs. While they deliver various health benefits, care should be taken with preparation and storage to maximize safety and nutritional value.
