Eggs can be prepared in many ways. For a simple meal, they can be scrambled, fried, poached, or boiled. In baking, eggs provide structure, leavening, and richness to cakes, cookies, and breads. They also act as emulsifiers, helping to combine ingredients like oil and water in sauces and dressings. When cooking savory dishes, eggs can be whisked into batters for frying or used to create custards and quiches.
How it differs from similar foods
Grade A eggs are known for their high quality, with whites that are firm and yolks that are well-centered. This differs from lower grades where the whites may be thinner and the yolks flatter. The large size provides a consistent measure for recipes.
