How to Separate an Egg White from the Yolk

Crack the egg and pour it into your clean hand, holding it over a bowl.

Gently open your fingers just enough to let the egg white slip through into the bowl, while keeping the yolk in your hand.

Once all the white has fallen into the bowl, place the yolk in a separate bowl.

Tip: Wash your hands before and after to keep things clean!

3. Bottle Suction Method
For a fun and easy way to separate egg whites from yolks, use an empty plastic bottle.

Steps:

Crack the egg into a bowl.

Squeeze an empty plastic bottle slightly, then hold the bottle’s opening over the yolk.

Release the squeeze slowly, and the bottle will suction the yolk into it, leaving the egg white behind.

Gently squeeze the bottle to release the yolk into a separate bowl.

Tip: Make sure the bottle is clean and dry before use.

Bonus Tip: Egg Separator Tool
If you want a foolproof method, you can use a dedicated egg separator tool. These are inexpensive and designed to catch the yolk while allowing the egg white to drip through. Simply crack the egg into the separator and let gravity do the work!

Using any of these methods will give you perfectly separated egg whites and yolks, ready for your next recipe!
