Egg whites offer multiple benefits, including astringent properties that reduce capillary permeability. When applied, they form a protective scab that minimizes fluid leakage and prevents secondary shock. This scab also shields the area from contamination and external irritants, thereby alleviating pain.【Functions of Egg White】
【Beauty Benefits】
1. Egg white removes blackheads—consistent use yields visible results
1. Prepare clean cotton pads. Tear thick pads into thinner sheets—the thinner, the better;
2. Crack an egg, separate the white from the yolk, and set the white aside;
3. Dip the thinned cotton pad into the egg white, gently pat off excess liquid, then apply it to the nose area;
4. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes until the pad dries completely, then carefully peel it off.
II. As a Face Mask
1. Take one fresh egg and one teaspoon of honey. Thoroughly whisk the egg white until frothy, then add the honey and mix well until combined.
2. Apply to face and allow to dry naturally. Rinse off with water. Use regularly.
3. Both ingredients in this mask offer proven skin-beautifying and softening effects. Their chemical composition primarily consists of protein and monosaccharides—both essential nutrients for skin. Regular use moisturizes skin and reduces wrinkles.
【Egg White Recipes】
【Stir-Fried Fresh Milk】
Ingredients:
150g fresh milk, 350g egg whites, cooked lard, minced scallions and ginger, salt, MSG, cornstarch slurry, sesame oil (all to taste).
Method:
1. Crack egg whites into a large bowl and whisk gently with chopsticks. Gradually add part of the milk, then mix in salt, MSG, and cornstarch slurry to form a fresh milk mixture.
2. Heat rendered lard in a clean wok over low heat until moderately hot (50-60% heat). Stir-fry minced scallions and ginger, then pour in the milk mixture. Gently stir with a spatula until it begins to form clumps. Drizzle a small amount of rendered lard along the wok's edge while continuing to stir-fry until the mixture solidifies into curds. Drizzle with sesame oil, mix well, and transfer to a serving plate.
Characteristics: Soft and chewy milk curds with a fragrant aroma, balanced salty and spicy flavor.
Tip: Carefully control the ratio of milk to egg whites. Too much egg white reduces chewiness, while too little hinders milk coagulation.
Benefits: Milk is a complete protein source containing all eight essential amino acids, particularly rich in methionine and lysine—nutrients often lacking in plant proteins.The Bencao of Rihuazi summarizes milk's benefits as "nourishing the heart and lungs, clearing heat toxins, and moisturizing the skin." Thus, pairing milk with eggs—known for their "skin-brightening" effect—creates a dish that hydrates the skin, leaving women's complexions smooth and delicate. 【Double-Skin Milk】 1. Bring 250ml milk to a boil, then pour into a bowl to cool.
2. Beat 2 egg whites with sugar until stiff peaks form. Slowly pour the cooled milk into the egg whites (leaving the milk skin in the bowl). Mix thoroughly, skim off any foam, then pour the mixture back into the bowl with the milk skin.
3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and steam for 15 minutes.
