Let's be honest, though, the white of any egg is essentially pointless. Some yolk must always be retained in order to make the white palatable. There is nothing worse when eating a boiled egg to finish off the yolk and find yourself with just egg white remaining. That is a joyless experience and is why the double-yolked egg is the way forward.
