How To Measure Partial Eggs

Step 1

Crack your egg into a bowl.

Step 2

Hand whisk the egg until the yolk and white are thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Measure the number of tablespoons (or teaspoons) from the single whisked egg. I measure out a tablespoon at a time and transfer it to another small bowl. One large egg contains approximately 3 tablespoons, but you'll want to measure the eggs you typically purchase for accuracy.

Step 4

If you need a half an egg, measure out half of the total whisked amount, i.e. 1 1/2 tablespoons.

Step 5

Add the partial amount to your recipe, then add the remaining amount of egg and proceed with the rest of the recipe. (i.e. you need 1 1/2 eggs: add the measured 1/2 egg and one whole egg)
