Eggs are one of the most complete foods. They contain several vitamins: A, B, D, and also lecithin, which benefits memory and learning capabilities, making them special for breakfast. They also provide a good dose of potassium, copper, phosphorus, and iron, among other minerals. Each egg contributes approximately 90 calories. An excellent option with eggs is preparing omelettes. To do this successfully, the eggs should be vigorously beaten before pouring them into a preheated pan with a bit of butter. If our goal is to make a meringue, and have it reach the right consistency, we must incorporate the sugar in several stages. The first stage should be after beating the egg whites a little, and the last stage should be when they are already whipped. A third addition can be made in the middle when they are almost fully whipped. The best way to store eggs is to keep them in a cool place and in an upright position. They should be at room temperature for cooking. When the egg is cold, the shell can crack when it is placed in boiling water, or the yolk does not emulsify well, and the egg white forms bubbles when placed in hot oil if frying.
