Answers:
What kind of egg?
Small, medium, large, and extra large just read your carton of eggs when you purchase them.
Depends on what size. Here a size 6 is 30grams. You really may as well be asking 'how long is a piece of string'!
These approximations are based on a large (2-oz) egg.
Other egg sizes may be more or less than the amounts listed below.
Whole Eggs
3 whole eggs = 1/2 cup
1 whole egg = 3 tablespoons
1/2 whole egg = 4 teaspoons
Yolks
6 to 7 egg yolks = 1/2 cup
1 egg yolk = 1 tablespoon
Whites
4 to 6 egg whites = 1/2 cup
1 egg white = 2 tablespoons
Dried or Powdered Eggs
1 egg = 2 tablespoons egg powder + 2 tablespoons warm water
Modern Sizes (USA) Size Mass per egg
Jumbo Greater than 2.5 oz. or 71g
Very Large or Extra Large (XL) Greater than 2.25 oz. or 64g

Medium (M) Greater than 1.75 oz. or 50g
