That Stringy Thing in Your Egg: It's Not What You Think!
The Chalaza: That Stringy Thing in Your Egg Isn't a Defect, It's a Sign of Freshness! Spain – In a recent TikTok video, pharmacist and science communicator farmaceuticofernandez clarified a common kitchen mystery: the white stringy strands often found in eggs. These strands, known as the chalaza, are not some kind of defect or nerve as many believe. "It's a protein structure," explains farmaceuticofernandez in his video, "that acts as a natural yolk stabilizer." The chalaza keeps the yolk centered within the egg white, ensuring its protection. The video uses a close-up of a frying egg to show the chalaza's appearance. "The more visible the chalaza, the fresher the egg," he adds. The video encourages viewers not to remove the chalaza, as it's entirely edible and adds extra protein to your meal. This simple explanation has resonated with many viewers, highlighting the value of readily available scientific knowledge in everyday life.
