Question
Hello, Is it permissible to eat a boiled egg? It is known that when preparing dishes with eggs, such as cakes, one must check that there is no blood in the egg. On the other hand, when preparing a boiled egg, it is not opened and is cooked and eaten as is. How is this possible?
Answer
Hello
Since most eggs do not contain blood, if it is not possible to check, it is permissible to eat without checking.
Therefore, a boiled egg, since it cannot be checked after cooking, is permissible to eat without checking.
