About Egg Whites
In an egg white, the "white" is the part of the egg that surrounds the yolk. It only turns white when cooked because of a chemical change. While the yolk is the primary source of nutrition in an egg, there is some nutrient content to the egg white. The technical name for the egg white is the albumen.
