My recipe calls for 3 egg whites - is there an easy way to separate the whites and yolks from eggs?

Place a glass bowl on a work surface.

  • Take an egg and tap it fairly hard on the edge of the bowl so that the egg cracks across the middle.

  • Without breaking the egg open, turn the egg so that it is standing upright in your hands, with the yolk in the bottom half shell.

  • Remove the top half and hold it in your free hand.

  • Working over the bowl, gently slide and drop the egg yolk from one half of the shell to the other, letting the egg white fall into the bowl underneath and taking care not to catch the yolk on the edges of the shell.

  • Keep moving the yolk from one half shell to the other until all of the egg white has been collected in the bowl and only the yolk remains in one half of the shell.
