10 Japanese egg myths 01: Japanese eggs can be eaten raw

In Japanese food culture, it is common to eat rice topped with soy sauce and raw eggs. Even “sukiyaki” uses raw eggs as a sauce. Does this mean that Japanese eggs can be eaten raw? In fact, the monitoring of eggs in Japan is very strict. If the eggs arrive at the processing center from the farm, and the cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, packaging, logistics, etc. meet the standards, the Japan Animal Products Export Promotion Association will issue “TAMAGO= JAPAN EGG” eggs Recognized, certified eggs can be eaten raw within 3 weeks from the date of production.

However, the Japanese eggs bought in Hong Kong have the opportunity to be put on the shelves in Hong Kong supermarkets from production. It has exceeded the deadline recommended by Japan to be eaten raw. Coupled with the influence of temperature differences during delivery, Japanese eggs in Hong Kong are usually printed with the words “for processing and heating” to ensure that they can be eaten. Safety.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 02: Raw Japanese eggs are more nutritious

Japanese eggs are famous for their high nutritional value, all due to the good management of the breeding environment and the selected feed. Therefore, many people think that eating raw eggs can get more nutrition, but in fact, cooked Japanese eggs also contain rich nutritional value.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 03: High-priced eggs taste especially good

The pricing of Japanese eggs depends on factors such as feed, breeding environment, and breed of chickens. Even cheap eggs can have an excellent taste. If more expensive feed is used, the price of eggs will naturally be higher.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 04: Japanese eggs are ranked

In fact, there is no grade ranking for eggs in Japan. Although some producers may use their own classification system, there is no unified official grade ranking.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 05: Egg yolk color affects taste

It is often heard that for Japanese eggs, the darker the yolk, the better, which means the richer the taste. In fact, the color of the egg yolk depends on the carotene and lutein in the hen’s feed. For example, adding appropriate amount of bell pepper, corn, marigold petals, etc. to the feed can make the egg yolk darker. Take the “New Era Egg” and “New Era Egg Akatsuki” under the Japanese egg factory FREDS as examples. The egg yolk of the latter is darker in color, and the pigment content does not produce nutritional differences.

Since the chicken cannot produce pigments, it will be affected by the color of the food. Since the main raw material of Japanese chicken feed is corn, the color of the egg yolk becomes dark yellow. (Yahoo Food interview picture)

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 06: The umami taste of Japanese eggs lasts longer

The freshness of Japanese eggs depends on the freshness management and transportation method. Whether it is Japanese eggs or eggs from other countries, if they are properly handled and preserved, they can maintain their freshness.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 07: Japanese eggs are organic

While some Japanese eggs are organic, not all Japanese eggs are organic. Since the production volume of organic eggs in Japan is relatively small, most eggs are produced under conventional farming methods.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 08: Eggs need to be washed before eating

Under normal circumstances, eggs do not need to be washed before eating. There is a protective layer called “eggshell wax” on the shell of fresh eggs, which can prevent bacteria and other pollutants from entering the eggs. On the contrary, washing the eggshell may cause moisture to enter the egg, thereby increasing the risk of bacterial growth. After purchase, it is recommended to store in a refrigerator below 10°C and enjoy as soon as possible.

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 09: The Myth of White and Brown Eggs

The color of the eggs is derived from the breed of the chicken. Since the common eggs in Japan are usually white eggs, it is often misunderstood that they have higher nutritional value. In fact, there is no substantial difference between white eggs and brown eggs. New era eggs include white eggs, brown eggs, and higher-grade “new era eggs” with darker yolks. There are also “feather light eggs”, “de ちゃんたまご” and “ji た ま” for you to choose from.

The color of the eggs is determined by the breed of the chicken and has no effect on the nutritional value. (Yahoo Food interview picture)

Japanese Egg 10 LargeMyth 10: Is it okay to eat cloudy egg whites?

Newly born eggs have turbid egg whites. Many people think that they are spoiled and dare not eat them. However, this is only because the egg whites contain carbon dioxide. When the carbon dioxide flows away, the turbidity will disappear. It has no effect on eating.
