How do i seperate egg white frm yolk ?

Question

is it necessary 2 boil d egg 2 seperate egg white frm the yolk?

Answer 1

with a spoon

Answer 2

Crack the egg in half over a bowl. Make sure to hold the shell up so most of the egg stays in the shell. Then slowly take the shell with the egg in it and transfer it into the shell without the yolk, letting the egg white fall into the bowl. Do this a couple of times until you're left with the yolk. Be very careful not to let the yolk catch onto the edge of the shell, otherwise it could break the yolk and cause it to fall into the whites, and even the tiniest amount of yolk can ruin egg whites, especially if it's needed for something like meringue or a sufflé. Then, you place the yolk down the drain or in a separate bowl, depending whether you need it or not for the rest of the recipe that you use.

It takes practice, but after the first attempt or two, it's easy.

Good luck!

Answer 3

No its not necessary to boil the egg to seperate white from yolk.Pour the egg on to your cupped fingers and let the white drain below and there you have your eggs seperated.

Answer 4

Nope...Once you crack the egg (instead of emptying the whole thing out) just crack it in half and transfer the yolk to each half and the yumminess that falls out is the white. Put it into a bowl or straight into a pan to cook.  

Answer 5

Don't do that!

If the recipe asks for egg whites or egg yolks, you need to carefully break the RAW egg in half and pour the yolk back and forth between the two halves over a bowl to catch the white that will fall out as you do this. Then place the yolk in a separate bowl.  

Answer 6

U need not boil the egg for  removing yolk,keep two small cups or containers,with the help of spoon as a divider between yolk and  white, pour white in separate container and yolk in the other container.Send some sample after trying.haha

Answer 7

The easiest method I have found is using a funnel.

Crack the egg open and pour it into a funnel. The egg white should come out of the bottom, leaving the yolk in the funnel.

Answer 8

While the shell half to shell half method is good, I think the easiest way to separate an egg is to crack it into your hand. Hold your hand over a bowl, crack the egg into your hand over your closed fingers, then slightly separate your fingers and the white will fall through and you can just keep hold of the yolk. Once all of the white has fallen through your fingers, you can just drop the yolk into a separate bowl.

Answer 12

Not at all! I use the shell of the egg to separate the yolk from the white. First crack the egg in two and hold the egg over a bowl. Open the shell up  making sure as to not let the egg yolk drop into the bowl. Swap the yolk back and forth between the two shells until the white separates from the yolk and falls into the bowl.

Another easy way to do this is to crack the egg in half and scoop out the yolk with a spoon. Keeping the yolk on the spoon pull the white away from the yolk.

Answer 13

a strainer and a spoon crack egg in strainer use spoon to scoop out yolk but they sell egg yolk seperaters in walmart in the utensal spot.  

Answer 14

No, it is not necessary to boil/cook the egg.

This works best with a fresh egg that is cold (straight from the refrigerator).

Crack the egg by tapping firmly once on a hard surface (not a corner of a hard surface); tap firmly enough to get a crack that extends an inch or two in length.  Gently pry the shell apart into two halves, each forming a kind of cup.  Keep the yolk inside the shell while the white falls away and drips into a clean bowl.  Now pass the yolk from one half of the shell to the other half, allowing more of the white to fall away from the yolk into the bowl.  Keep passing it back and forth until no more white is falling away from the yolk. The yolk should remain unbroken. Put the yolk into a separate clean bowl.

Depending on why you are doing this, you want to be VERY careful not to get any yolk in the white.  This is important if you are planning to beat the whites to a foam and then keep beating to get stiff peaks.  If there's any yolk in the whites, they won't beat up into stiff peaks.  So, if the yolk happens to break, stop passing the yolk from one half of the shell to the other and just drop it into the bowl you have ready to catch the yolks.  Then look very carefully at the whites to make sure there's not even a speck of yellow yolk in it.  If there is, then scoop it out carefully with a bit of clean eggshell or a small dessert spoon.
