Scrambled Egg Whites

Egg whites are the clear liquid part of an egg, also called albumen. They are primarily made of water and proteins. For food use, egg whites are typically separated from the yolks, pasteurized, and then dried or frozen.

Egg whites provide protein and can help with texture and binding in foods. They are often used in baked goods, protein supplements, and processed foods like frozen breakfast items and meat products.

Egg whites are a source of protein and are considered safe for consumption. The FDA lists dried egg whites as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). International bodies like JECFA have evaluated egg products. Typical consumption of egg whites as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.
