Separate the Whites of Two Eggs

Making an Omelet

Separating eggs.

Fiona Haynes
Using an egg separator if you have one, separate the whites of two eggs and add them to one whole egg in your bowl or pitcher. If you don't have an egg separator, you can carefully crack your egg and empty the yolk from one half the shell to the the other while the white spills into your bowl. One other way is to empty a cracked egg on to your cupped clean hand, and allow the white to slip through your fingers. This is obviously messy!

You can finally start to see those numbers come down. Take charge of this important aspect of your health.
