Eggs are one of the healthy foods that should be consumed by people of all ages with their high protein and iron content. prof. Dr. Canan Karatay shares that this super food keeps you full for a long time, especially in Ramadan, that you should not leave eggs on your table. According to many experts, it is of great importance that the egg is cooked correctly, which is known as the secret of long life.
WHY DOES A GRAY RING FORM AROUND THE EGGS?
The dark halo around the yolk is the result of cooking the egg for too long. When the egg is cooked for more than 10 minutes, a green-gray ring known as the iron sulfide ring forms around the yolk. This prevents us from benefiting from iron. However, eggs are a very good source of iron mineral. In iron deficiency anemia, metabolism slows down, and negative symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, focusing problems, memory difficulties, difficult getting out of bed in the morning and hair loss occur.
HOW TO COOK HEALTHY EGGS?

You may encounter results that vary depending on the power of your stove and whether the egg is organic or not. In your conditions, the inside of the egg is half cooked in 10 minutes. If you see that it’s gone, cook for 1-1.5 minutes extra next time, but carefully adjust the time so that there are no gray rings.
