Some dishes contain either only proteins (for example, meringues) or only yolks (for example, mayonnaise). Baking turns out to be much more magnificent if you beat the whites separately from the yolks. True, there are housewives who cannot separate the yolk from the protein.
It is necessary
- - an egg;
- - knife;
- - sieve;
- - three cups;
- - paper;
- - bag.
Instructions
Step 1
Break the egg into a clean sieve in which you sift the flour. Place the sieve on a plate of the same diameter. The white will drain onto the plate, and the yolk will remain on top with the remains of the protein. Gently remove the yolk with a spoon, and pour the remaining white from the sieve.
Step 2
Prepare two cups. Crack the egg so that the contents remain on the larger pieces of the shell. Drain the whites into a cup, holding the yolk with the other half of the shell. If you need to separate the yolk from the white from several eggs, then use a third cup. In the event of a minor mishap, you will not spoil previously detached yolks.
Step 3
Use a knife to break the shell into two equal pieces. You can separate the white from the yolk by pouring the yolk from one half of the shell to the other over a bowl until all the white is drained.
Step 4
Make a funnel out of a piece of paper with a very thin hole at the bottom. Break an egg into it. The white will come out from the bottom, and the yolk will remain in the funnel.
Step 5
Break the egg into a plate. To separate the white from the yolk, cover the yolk with a glass that is slightly larger in diameter than the yolk. Drain the egg whites into the cup, holding the plate and glass upright.
Step 6
Punch two holes in the shell, at the top and bottom. Holding the egg over the cup, let the egg whites drain from the bottom hole. Pour the yolk into another cup, breaking the shell.
Step 7
Crack the shell with a sharp knife, but not all the way to make a hole. Release the protein from the shell by tilting the egg one way and then the other. When all the white is drained, release the yolk into another container.
Step 8
Pour the egg into a bag with a small hole that will allow the egg white to come out. Move the yolk in different directions so that all the white comes out. Pour the yolk from the bag into a bowl.
Step 9
Crack the egg in your hand over the cup to separate the yolk from the white. Moving the yolk along the hand, the white will pour out through the fingers and to the sides. Transfer the yolk to another bowl and wash your hands. You can do this with gloves.
