Chalazae are the pair of spiral bands holding the yolk of a bird's egg suspended near the center of the egg. Each of the spiral bands is called a chalaza.
i think it made of albumine
Chalaza
Chalaza are round shaped tissues that help suspend the egg yolk with in a egg. This structure is present in the eggs of most reptiles and birds but are sometimes also present in plants performing a similar job. For culinary purposes, Chalaza is not used as it may effect the texture of the dish, even though it is perfectly same to consume.

Strong protein strands called chalaza are attached to both sides of the yolk. Chalaza holds the yolk centered within the albumen (egg white).
The chalaza is a twisted structure of protein strands that anchors the yolk in place within the egg white, helping to keep the yolk centered. This positioning is crucial for the developing embryo, as it ensures that the yolk receives proper nutrients and protection during incubation. Additionally, the chalaza provides stability, preventing the yolk from coming into direct contact with the eggshell, which could lead to damage. Overall, the chalaza plays an essential role in maintaining the integrity and viability of the egg.
The small white bit next to the yolk of an egg is call chalaza. This is a strand of heavy protein that helps to keep the yolk centered in the albumen (white/clear part of an egg). This chalaza disappears as the egg get older and is more visible when you buy very fresh eggs.
The chalaza in an egg is a rope-like, white "thing" that you might find in a scrambled or fried egg. If you look carefully, you can see it in a raw egg. What is does is it stabilizes or suspends the yolk, so that in a fresh egg the yolk floats in the middle of the albumin (egg white). When candling an egg, one thing you look for is that the yolk of an older egg will be near the shell and definitely visible. In a freshly laid egg, the you see a "shadow" of the yolk, and as you twirl the egg, the chalaza keeps the yolk in the center and away from the shell.
Yes. You can eat it if you don't mind the texture. I scramble eggs so I don't notice it.
It is chalaza, but it is basically just a thicker part of the egg white, its function is to keep the yolk in the center of the egg
In the eggs of most birds and reptiles, the chalazae are two spiral bands of tissue that suspend the yolk in the center of the white (the albumen). The function of the chalazae is to hold the yolk in place.
Chalaza. It is a protein strand that helps keep the yolk centered in the albumen. It is perfectly edible and often is missing in older eggs. Once the egg is cooked you will not see it.
