What should be the color of egg yolks

When you next break the egg in the pan, pay attention to how it looks from the yolk.Probably you do not know, but the yolks really should not be yellow.

The colour of egg yolk can tell a lot about the health of the hen that laid it. As you might guess, most of those eggs that we buy in stores is far from ideal.



When we think about chicken eggs, you probably imagine walking in the yard a hen that is looking for delicacies in the form of worms in the free from the absorption of the grain. Unfortunately, most of the eggs sold in stores are chickens that are 24 hours a day locked up in a huge chicken coop, rarely see the sun and almost never walk in the fresh air.

If you want to know what kind of lifestyle was led by chicken, whose egg are you going to eat, look at the yolk.

Which of these yolks do you find most attractive?



If you buy eggs at the grocery store, you probably often see the yolk, which is pictured in the center. Most store-bought egg has a pale yellow hue. This means that the chicken, demolished it, most likely, eat only fodder and almost all of his time spent in the sitting position.

It may seem unlikely, but in fact, the perfect yolk is the one with the dark orange color. In the photo he is on the left.



If the egg yolk is exactly the same color, this means that, most likely, it was demolished chicken that freely walks around in the yard, says Dr. Hilary Tesmar, Director of programmes of healthy nutrition center ENC."Chickens that roam freely in the yard, eat more pigmented foods. This is reflected in the color of the yolk," she continues.

Why should you care what it eats chicken? Well, at least because it has a direct impact on the nutritional value of the eggs you eat.

Yeah, whatever the color of the yolks, the eggs almost always contain the same amount of protein and fat, but dark yolks — a sign that eggs contain sufficient amounts of xanthophylls and omega-3. The xanthophylls are also found in spinach, cabbage, zucchini, and broccoli. About omega 3 and its importance for us to tell, I think, is not necessary.

In addition, the study conducted by experts from the University of Pennsylvania, showed that eggs with darker yolks contain more vitamins A, D and E, and more beta-carotene.

Strictly speaking, if the eggs of these substances are not present or insufficient (as evidenced by the bright, pale yolk), and the particular meaning is also present: no good but protein and fats can be obtained from other products.published
