Are all pareve items kosher?

Eggs from any kosher bird (chicken, duck, etc) are kosher. However, you must check for blood spots in the eggs. If you find a blood spot, throw away the part of the egg that has blood, some people won't eat the whole egg. If the blood spot represents a chicken embryo growing in a fertilized egg or if there is a fertilized embryo in the egg, no part of the egg may be eaten. It is also worth noting that since ostriches are not kosher, ostrich eggs are not kosher either. The same applies to all non-kosher species of birds. Additionally, the rule that eggs of a kosher animal are kosher and eggs of a non-kosher animal are not kosher also applies to fish eggs.

What is blood spot mean on an egg?

While it is unusual for you to find a blood spot in an egg from the store, it is not unusual to find one from an egg purchased from a local eggs farm stand. Blood spots are simply a malfunction in the oviduct of the hen. As the egg forms, it is common for small blood vessels to break releasing a tiny amount of blood which is then visible either in the yolk or the albumen of the egg. Blood spot, while unappetizing to most consumers are not bad or dangerous and will disappear when cooked. Home cooks often work hard to remove the slightest bit of blood from the egg when cooking at home but I can assure you that most restaurants don't bother to remove a small blood spot when cooking your breakfast and you would never know once the egg is cooked and served.


How do you find out if there is a red spot inside a chicken egg?

No. What you are seeing is called a blood spot and this happens when a small blood vessel is broken while the egg is being formed. You cannot see the germinal disc of a fertilized egg unless you are very good at looking for them. The germinal disc sits atop the yolk and is so small as to be almost invisible until it begins to grow after incubation.


What are the dark specks inside chicken eggs?

These are called blood spots and can appear in either the white (albumen) or the yolk. This happens when a small blood vessel breaks in the birds oviduct and deposits a trace amount of blood onto the forming egg prior to the formation of the shell. This tiny spot of blood is not harmful and will disappear when cooking the egg. Most restaurants and home cooks remove this blood spot simply because it is unpleasing to look at but it will not harm you.


What to do with eggs with blood spots?

Often, when the yolk of the egg is released from the ovary of the hen, small blood vessels can rupture causing the blood spot. Blood spots are not harmful but if you are bothered by it or for aesthetics when serving the egg, you can remove the spot with a teaspoon before it cooks. Once cooked, the blood spot will usually disappear since cooking protein chemically changes it composition.
