Egg

Weight per piece of egg: kecil ≈ 42 g, sedang ≈ 50 g, besar ≈ 58 g, sangat besar ≈ 65 g. When a recipe says "1 piece" without specifying size, use the medium size as the default.

US recipes assume LARGE eggs (50 g without shell). Use weight if substituting different egg sizes for accuracy.

Results may vary slightly depending on brand and how loosely or firmly you scoop. The values here use a reference density of 0.98 g/ml from authoritative sources like usda-fdc. For precision baking, use a digital kitchen scale instead of volume measures.

Refrigerate at 4°C. Float test for freshness: fresh egg sinks, old egg floats.

Egg is commonly used in: baking, scrambled eggs, binding meatballs, egg wash. Because its density is 0.98 g/ml, the volume vs weight conversion matters when scaling recipes.
