Background Information for Learners

Tools, Utensils and Equipment Required in Egg Assembling
Any physical item that is used to achieve a goal but is not consumed during this
process can be defined as a tool. Informally speaking, it can also be used to describe a
specific procedure with a specific purpose as well. The idea of equipment represents all
sorts of machinery, functional devices or accessories which serve an individual,
household or a community purpose. Usually, a set of tools that are designated for a
specific task is known as equipment.
Utensils are implements, vessels or instruments used in a household and especially
a kitchen. Unlike tools, utensils serve a specific purpose in the kitchen. In addition to
using her hands when preparing food, a cook also uses utensils such as a whisk or
paring knives. (https://www.slideshare.net/ErlaJadeAgustin/tools-equipments-utensils-
needed-in-preparing-egg-dishes)
Kitchen Implements
1. Channel knife – a small hand implement used normally in garnishing tasks.
2. Colander – a dish with hole of varying sizes which is made of stainless steel,
plastic or aluminum used to drain liquid from the washed vegetables and fruits.
 3. Offset-spatula – a wide bladed tool used to turn and lifting eggs from a hot
surface.
4. Pastry brush – a small tool used to stroke the surface of unbaked pastries or
cookies egg white egg yolk or glaze.
5. Rubber spatula or scraper – a wide elastic plastic or rubber scraper used to
rake the content of bowls and pans from the edges and fold beaten eggs in batter
or whipped cream.
6. Sieve – netting type supported by a round metal frame used for straining dry
ingredients like flour and starches.
7. Spoons – a slotted and perforated used for holding, mixing, stirring and
serving of foods.
8. Wire whip or whisk – an implement with loop of stainless wire lock to a handle
that is used for blending, mixing, whipping eggs or batter and for blending gravies
and sauces.
Kitchen Instruments
1. Egg poacher – a tiny Bain Marie with a top dish bowl containing pit, each sized
to hold an egg or contains detached device for poaching.
2. Omelette pan – a heavy based frying pan normally of cast iron or copper, with
rounded sloping sides used only for making omelettes.
3. Measuring cup – used to estimate liquid or solid ingredients.
4. Measuring spoon – used to estimate an amount of ingredients either liquid or
solid.
5. Sauce pan – essentially used for cooking sauce.
6. Mixing bowl – this container is used for mixing the ingredients with smooth
rounded interior surface.
Kitchen Equipment
1. Oven – a room or compartment used for baking, heating or other cooking
needs.
2. Electric mixer – A hand held mixer which generally comes with different
attachments including a whisk attachment for whisking cream, egg whites and
sugar.
 3. Refrigerator – A kitchen appliance that is used for preventing bacterial
contamination.
Cleaning and Sanitizing Tools and Equipment
Cleaning and sanitizing is the essential to do when preparing all equipment that are
needed in assembling egg dishes and in maintaining the workplace organized and
bacteria free.
Here are some tips to carry your workplace training:
1. Clean in logical order
2. Different cleaning jobs needs different procedures so that it will not cause any
damage to the surface or to yourself.
3. Plenty of cleaning agents are damaging. Especially if it will contact with your
skin or accidentally inhale the chemical.
4. Avoid mixing the cleaning agent with other chemical it could be very dangerous
because it produces toxic fumes.
Ware Washing
Ware washing is the process of washing and sanitizing dishes, glassware, flatware,
and pots and pans either manually or mechanically.
Manual Dishwashing
Steps
1. Scratch and pre-rinse - the purpose of this procedure is to loosen whatever that
sticks to the tools or equipment.
2. Wash - use warm water at 110°F to 120°F and a good detergent for easier
scrubbing.
3. Rinse - use clean warm water to wash off detergent. Change water regularly or a
running water.
4. Sanitize - position the kitchen tools in a rack and submerged it in hot water at
170°F for 30 seconds.
5. Drain and air-dry - do not towel-dry. This may cause contamination to the kitchen
tools.
Mechanical Dishwashing
The procedure in washing dishes through the use of a machine. It has the same
method as manual dishwashing except that the machine performs the washing, rinsing
and sanitizing.
Steps
1. Scratch and pre-rinse
2. Stand dishes so that the dishwasher spray will hit all surfaces.
3. Run machine for a full rotation.
 4. Place the sanitizing temperature at 180°F for machine that sanitizes by heat and
at 140°F for machine that sanitizes by chemical antiseptic.
5. Air-dry and check the dishes

Physical Structure and Composition of Eggs

 Eggs consist of approximately 9.5% eggshell (including shell membrane), 63%
albumen, and 27.5% yolk (1) (Table 1). The main components are water (75%), proteins
(12%), and lipids (12%), as well as carbohydrates and minerals

We commonly differentiate eggs into 3

parts, these are the Shell, the egg white
and the egg yolk. But a closer study
reveals that egg has a more detailed
anatomy.

Anatomy of an Egg
1. Shell- The egg’s exterior surface
which consists the 9 to 12% of the egg’s
total weight depending on the egg size
this serves as the egg’s protection from
bacterial contamination.
2. Air cell- This is the vacant space
between the white and shell. It can
barely be seen in a newly laid egg. As
the egg cools down, the inner membrane
will now detach from the outer shell layer
to form air cell.

3. Albumen/Egg white- This anatomy of the egg is also called the egg white, which
consists most of the egg’s liquid weight about 67%. This is produced from the oviduct
(passage way of the fallopian to the ovaries).
Chalasiferous- the inner thick white layer of the egg which is responsible for keeping
the yolk in the center.
4. Chalaza- This is the gelatinous strands of egg white both sides of the egg. This
anatomy of the egg is very so often mistakenly seen as an imperfection or a beginning
embryos which are not because of their gelatinous structure.
5. Germinal Disc- This is the entry of the latebra, the passage directing to the center of
the yolk. The germinal disc is hardly noticeable as a small depression on the exterior of
the yolk. When the egg is fertilized, sperm enters through the germinal disc and travel to
the center and a chick embryo will begin to form.
6. Membranes- These are the shell layer and the vitelline layer. Inside the shell are
two layers-the interior and the exterior. Vitelline layer protects the yolk which shield it
from breaking.
7. Yolk- This is the yellow to yellow or orange portion which consist the 33% liquid
weight of the egg. This is form from the ovary on the outside of the surface of the yolk.
The yolk material provides the food source of the embryonic growth.
Eggs are a nutrient goldmine!
One large egg has varying amounts of 13 essential vitamins and minerals, high-quality
protein, all for 70 calories.
While egg whites contain some of the eggs’ high-quality protein, riboflavin and
selenium, the majority of an egg’s nutrient package is found in the yolk. Nutrients such
as:
Vitamin D, critical for bone health and immune function. Eggs are one of the only foods
that naturally contain vitamin D.
Choline, essential for normal functioning of all cells, but particularly important during
pregnancy to support healthy brain development of the fetus.
Lutein and zeaxanthin, antioxidants that are believed to reduce the risk of developing
cataracts and slow the progression of age-related macular degeneration, a disease that
develops with age.
One egg has only 75 calories but 7 grams of high-quality protein, 5 grams of fat,
and 1.6 grams of saturated fat, along with iron, vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids. The
egg is a powerhouse of disease-fighting nutrients like lutein and zeaxanthi.

What are the characteristics of an egg?

The physical characteristics of the egg play an important role in the processes of
embryo development and successful hatching.
The most influential egg parameters are:
1. Weight
2. Shell thickness
3. Porosity
4. Shape index described as maximum breadth to length ratio
5. The consistency of the contents.

Egg is known to be the absolute food. It contains high quality protein with all necessary
amino acids, all of the vitamins besides vitamin C, and many minerals. Other than
mother’s milk, egg produces best protein naturally available. Egg protein is frequently
used as the recommended biological values of their proteins.

Egg quality
Egg has two common components: shell quality (surface quality) and interior egg
quality. Interior egg quality has a direct significance on the functional properties of eggs
while shell quality has a direct impact on microbiological quality.
Egg Grading- is a form of quality control used to classify eggs for its exterior and
interior quality.
Egg Size- The weight, breed, age and environmental factor have a great impact on the
size of the egg that a hen produces. Thus, hen that are underfed are expected to lay
smaller eggs.
