Eggs can be cooked using various methods. For breakfast, they can be scrambled, fried, or boiled. In baking, eggs act as a leavening agent and provide moisture and richness to batters and doughs. They are also crucial for creating emulsions, such as in mayonnaise or hollandaise sauce. When cooking, ensure eggs are handled hygienically. The shell protects the contents, but it should be washed before cracking if there is any visible dirt.
