The eggshell color is called by the "egg shell porphyrin" material decisions, and this material has not nutritional value. Analysis showed that the nutritional value of eggs, chicken nutrition depends on the level of the structure.

 
Evaluation of protein quality, mainly protein (egg white) in the protein content. From the sensory point of view, the more thick egg white, indicating that the higher protein content, protein quality, the better.

Egg yolk color depth with a light, from pale yellow to orange yellow have. Color of the pigment with egg yolk contains about.

To prevent the eggs in the shell burst in the cooking, the egg wash, put a water pot and soak for 1 minute over low heat to boil. After the switch to open Simmer 8 minutes. Avoid cooking too long, otherwise the egg yolk with ferrous ions in the chemical reaction of sulfide ions to form ferrous sulfide precipitate brown, hinder the body's absorption of iron.

Eggs cooked for too long, egg yolk proteins in ferrous iron and sulfide ions combine to form insoluble iron sulfide, it is difficult to be absorbed. Fried eggs over the old, the edge will be burnt, contains egg proteins into low molecular weight polymer of amino acids, this amino acid can be formed at high temperatures often detrimental to human health of chemical substances.

 

    Misunderstanding Five: fresh eggs and milk with high nutritional
The morning to drink milk when eating eggs, or the egg in milk and cook, many people's eating habits.

Misunderstanding of the eight: eat eggs better maternal
