Published in Egg Anatomy 1 min read

The middle of a boiled egg is called the yolk.

The yolk is the round, yellow part of the egg that contains most of the egg's fat and protein. It also contains vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients.

When an egg is boiled, the yolk cooks and becomes solid. The firmness of the yolk depends on how long the egg is boiled.
