Albumen . This should not be confused with albumin, a kind of protein.
An egg yolk surrounded by the egg white.Egg white is the common name for the clear liquid (also called albumen, poggle, or glair/glaire) contained within an egg. It is the cytoplasm of the egg, which until fertilization is a single cell. It consists mainly of about 10% proteins dissolved in water. Its primary purpose is to protect the egg yolk and also to provide additional nutrition for the growth of the embryo, as it is rich in proteins and is of high nutritional value. Unlike the egg yolk, it contains little fat.

Albumen. My sister has another name for it which is not for general publication. Must say I do not like it a lot either? Unless it is properly cooked.
