Egg white

Egg white is the clear liquid part of an egg, found inside the shell. It's a natural ingredient that comes from chickens. While the yolk is yellow and contains the egg's nutrients, the egg white is mostly made up of water and proteins.

To get egg white, eggs are cracked open, and the yolk is separated from the clear part. People can do this by hand or by using machines. The egg white can then be used as it is or processed further for various food products.

You might see egg white listed on food labels because it can help give foods a fluffy or light texture. It's commonly used in products like meringues, cakes, and some protein bars to help them rise and hold their shape. Egg white can also be used in salads, smoothies, and even as a natural glue in dishes like sushi.
