About Egg, whole, cooked, hard-boiled
The hard-boiled egg is convenience food in its purest form — cooked in its own shell, easy to carry, and ready to eat with nothing more than a pinch of salt. Boiling sets both the white and the yolk firm without adding a drop of fat.
Nutritionally it's the whole egg's strengths in a tidy package: complete, high-quality protein in the white, and a yolk loaded with vitamin B12, riboflavin, vitamin D, choline and the eye-protecting pigments lutein and zeaxanthin. One large egg lands around 70 to 80 calories, with most of the fat and micronutrients in the yolk.
Unlike a raw egg, the cooking removes any salmonella worry, which is part of why boiled eggs are such a popular grab-and-go snack and salad topping.
