    Study Notes

    Preparing Egg Dishes

    • Eggs consist of approximately 9.5% shell, 63% albumen (egg white), and 27.5% yolk.
    • Egg composition includes water (75%), proteins (12%), lipids (12%), carbohydrates, and minerals.

    Components of an Egg

    • Shell: Serves as protection, accounting for 9-12% of total egg weight.
    • Air Cell: A space formed as the egg cools, located between the egg white and shell.
    • Albumen/Egg White: Makes up about 67% of the egg's liquid weight, supports the yolk.
    • Chalaza: Gelatinous strands that keep the yolk centered; not an imperfection.
    • Germinal Disc: Small depression on yolk surface, entry point for fertilization.
    • Membranes: Two layers inside the shell protect the yolk.
    • Yolk: Rich in nutrients, provides food for embryonic growth; consists of 33% of liquid weight.

    Nutritional Value of a Whole Egg

    • Provides 72 calories, with 6.3g protein and 4.8g total fat.
    • Yolk contains significant cholesterol (184mg) and vitamins A (245 IU) and D (37 IU).
    • Egg white (albumen) contributes 3.6g protein, minimal calories, and fat.

    Kitchen Tools for Preparing Eggs

    Egg Quality Assessment

    • Quality is divided into shell quality (surface) and interior quality (functional).
    • Egg grading classifies eggs based on both exterior and interior attributes.
    • Size is influenced by hen's diet, breed, age, and environmental factors. Underfed hens produce smaller eggs.

    Ware Washing
