What it is

Egg yolks are the yellow, nutrient-rich part of an egg. They are separated from the egg white and often used as an ingredient in processed foods. The term 'free-range' indicates that the hens that laid the eggs had access to the outdoors.

Why it's used

Egg yolks add richness, color, and emulsifying properties to foods. They help bind ingredients together and create a smoother texture. They are commonly found in baked goods like cakes, cupcakes, and breads, as well as in sauces and dressings.

Health notes

Egg yolks are a source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. The FDA considers eggs to be a major food allergen. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated eggs and egg products. While eggs are nutritious, they are also a source of dietary cholesterol, and research on the health effects of dietary cholesterol is ongoing.

Allergen info

Eggs are one of the 9 major food allergens identified by the FDA. People with an egg allergy should avoid products containing egg yolks.
