What are the health benefits of egg whites?

Egg whites have a high protein content with low calorie and low fat content. Egg whites can also lower blood pressure about as much as a low dose of a high blood pressure drug. While the egg white may not look like it's packed full of nutrients, it does offer several benefits without a lot of calories. Recently I received some liquid egg whites from Egg Whites 24/7(eggwhites247.com).

Can you substitute egg whites for whole eggs when baking?

It is not a good idea to substitute whole eggs for egg whites when baking! If you think about it, you will realize that it will change the entire consistency of your mix when you do that. If the recipe has called for egg whites, very probably it also says that the egg whites should be whipped until frothy, then folded into the batter. You cannot do that with the egg yolks present. The whole purpose of using egg whites ONLY is to make the batter light and fluffy. Egg yolks are more heavy, and cannot be whipped into a light, frothy consistency. {if the recipe does not state to beat the egg whites separately, it may be ok to substitute whole eggs, especially in recipes for cookies or brownies. In some of these recipes the whites only are used to reduce the fat and cholesterol content; in these cases, it's perfectly fine to substitute whole eggs, using 1 whole egg for every 2 whites called for.} Always try to follow the recipe EXACTLY. Changes and substitutions are always possible, but you need to learn when you can substitute an item. Sometimes you simply cannot make substitutions and still make what you want. If you want to make a nice, light, low-calorie salad for lunch, but you find that you do not have any lettuce, you cannot have a salad because there is no substitute for the lettuce! (Unless you happen to have other greens in the lettuce family, such as endive, spinach, radiccio, etc.) Substitute 2 egg whites for each whole egg. This substitution may make baked goods less tender. To compensate, try adding 1 teaspoon of oil per egg called for in recipe. This is just fine for cooking or baking cookies/cakes. When it comes for recipes where you have to whip the egg white, this would not be suitable. Otherwise, this substitution is just fine.


Can you substitute egg whites for eggs?

Yes, though it may make what you are cooking slightly fluffier and lighter. Also if you are going to do this then you should do 3 egg whites for every 2 eggs. You should also add a touch more of oil to the recipe. One book recommends one teaspoon of oil for each egg yolk left out. The link below provides a wide number of possible substitutions.
