Eggs, chicken, white, dried

Dried chicken egg white is the white part of a chicken egg with most of its water removed. It mainly provides protein, with only trace amounts of fat and carbohydrate. Per 100g, it contains 82g of protein, 1389 kJ of energy, 3.5g of salt and 3.2mg of riboflavin. These figures refer to the dried product, before any water is added.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Riboflavin helps the body release energy from food. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Adding water changes the nutrient concentration but does not remove salt from the product. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
