There are white strips inside the egg

The eggs we usually eat are divided into two parts: egg white and egg yolk. The egg white and egg yolk of fresh eggs appear in two states respectively, and these two states are isolated from each other. If the eggs are stored for a long time, the egg white and egg yolk will be mixed together. At this time, we will see that the eggs are in a turbid state. So what is the matter with the white strips in the eggs?

Eggs can be seen in meals all over the world. It is well known that eggs are rich in protein. Many experts also believe that choosing protein-rich eggs for breakfast is better than those processed cereals full of sugar, and is also better for weight control. People who often cook eggs must have seen the following situation when beating raw eggs.

That is the white strip in the picture. It looks a bit disgusting. What is this sticky string of things?

This thing is called frenulum, and it is safe to eat. Although it looks strange, it is not an umbilical cord. The following picture can help you better understand what it is.

The ligaments are used to fix the yolk in place and can be seen at both ends of the yolk. The most interesting thing about the frenulum is that the more pronounced the frenulum is, the fresher the egg is.

In fact, these little strips disappear as the egg matures. If you don't see a string inside a raw egg you crack, it means the egg is probably not that fresh anymore, meaning it has been sitting on the shelf or in the refrigerator for a long time. If you don’t believe it, you can observe it next time you beat the eggs.
