What is the white spot near the yolk?<br>It&#8217;s called a chalaza and is a natural structure that holds the yolk suspended in the center of the egg white. It&#8217;s completely edible and a sign of freshness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Should I remove it before cooking?<br>No, it&#8217;s not necessary. Some people choose to remove it for aesthetic reasons, but there&#8217;s no health risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Does a chalaza indicate a fertilized egg?<br>Absolutely not. Chalaza is present in all chicken eggs, fertilized or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. Can I use eggs with a cake batter?<br>Yes, but if you want a smoother mixture (e.g., meringues), you can strain the eggs through a fine sieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. How can I tell if an egg is still good?<br>Place it in a glass of water: if it sinks, it&#8217;s fresh; if it floats, it&#8217;s discarded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udcd6 Introduction:Have you ever cracked a raw egg and noticed a small white spot stuck to the yolk?
