Cooking Steps
In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil over medium heat.
Carefully separate the egg white from the yolk. Add the egg white to the boiling water.
Cook the egg white for about 2-3 minutes, ensuring it is semi-boiled and has a soft, slightly firm texture.
Remove the egg white from the water and let it cool to a lukewarm temperature.
Using a clean fork or spoon, mash the semi-boiled egg white into a smooth texture to avoid choking hazards.
Serve the smashed egg white as-is or mix it into other baby food like mashed vegetables or cereals.
