Egg is the reproductive body laid by the female encased in a round or oval shell. The egg consists of the thick, clear white (albumen), approximately 60% of total weight of egg, and a yellow yolk, approximately 30% of total weight of egg.The white is 87% water and 10% protein. The protein in egg whites coagulate at 150 degrees F (65 degrees C).The yolk consists of 50% water, 16% protein and 32% fat. The protein in the yolk coagulates at 158 degrees F (70 degrees C). Eggs, as well as flour, are the structural ingredients in baking.he white is 87% water and 10% protein. The protein in egg whites coagulate at 150 degrees F (65 degrees C).
