    Grass eggsIt is also called the soil egg, the stupid egg, the eggs, and the mountain eggs, and the names are different because of the different local dialects. It mainly refers to the eggs laid by free-range chickens. Grass eggs are generally small and have a pink shell, which is in stark contrast to ordinary eggs, and the yolk is larger than that of ordinary eggs (the yolk is relatively large).

    Foreign eggsThe eggs produced by general chicken farms, that is, the "foreign eggs" that people often say, may not be as nutritious as native eggs due to the use of special laying hen breeds and compound feed. But this is not the case, the cholesterol and fat content in the yolk of foreign eggs is much lower than that of native eggs, which is more suitable for the elderly. The feed eaten by the chickens in the chicken farm is scientifically proportioned, and the nutrient content is fully balanced, so the content of iron, calcium, magnesium and other mineral elements in the eggs produced is higher than that of native eggs.

    What is the difference between grass eggs and foreign eggs?

    First, the shell

    Foreign eggs: The eggshell is dark or whitish, and the egg is too large or too small. (Oversized: Completely foreign eggs; Too small: The eggs are selected to be small. )

    Grass eggs: The surface of the shell is smooth, and there is a slight powder attached to the outside, after wiping, it can be restored after leaving it for a few minutes. There are slight stripes or folds on the surface of the eggshell, there are irregular dots, no variegation, the protruding parts of the two ends of the egg are symmetrical, the small head is not too prominent, and the thickness of the eggshell is uniform.

    The most special thing is that the light is round and even, unlike foreign eggs, which are either dull or bright.

    Second, the interior

    1. The egg white of authentic grass eggs is clear and bright, the color is lighter and thicker; The egg yolk has a clear outline, a regular round shape, and the egg yolk is red in color and has a strong three-dimensional effect.

    2. Draw the center of the egg yolk three times with a spoon, and it can be seen from the **: the yolk of the foreign egg on the left has been obviously cloudy and has been mixed with the egg white; After the authentic grass egg on the right is scratched three times by the soup spoon, the appearance is obvious, there is no collapse, the egg yolk and egg white are clear and unmixed, and the center of the egg yolk is generally slightly red.

    3. After the egg is completely stirred with chopsticks for 15 seconds, it can be seen from ** that the yolk and egg white of the foreign egg on the left have been completely mixed, and a large number of bubbles have been generated; The yolk and egg white of the authentic grass egg on the right are not completely mixed, and the egg white can still be seen, and the viscosity of the egg yolk and egg white is high, and only a very small amount of bubbles appear.

    1. The appearance is different

    The size of the egg is relatively large, and the surface of the eggshell part is relatively low in calcium, so it will look very thin, but the color of the surface is obviously dark.

    Grass eggs are smaller in size and have a higher calcium content in the eggshell, so they are tougher and thicker. In addition, the surface of the eggshell looks lighter in color and has a film on top.

    2. The feed is different:

    Most of the foreign eggs are used with a certain amount of dietary fiber feed, and need to be scientifically proportioned before they can be used, so as to ensure that people will not cause damage to the body in the process of eating eggs.

    Most of the feed used for grass eggs are wheat, mung beans, vegetables, soybeans and other dry foods, because grass eggs come from free-range chickens, so chickens will choose to eat grass seeds, grass, insects and other natural feed in addition to eating these in the process of foraging.

    3. Different nutrition:

    Eggs contain fat and cholesterol, and dietary fiber is also scientifically proportioned, which reduces the content of fat and cholesterol to a certain extent, so it is very suitable for the elderly who are weak.

    Grass eggs contain minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, etc., and because chickens eat more types of feed, the nutrient content of grass eggs is higher than that of other eggs.
