Egg with wheat germ is an egg dish made by mixing wheat germ into beaten eggs before cooking. It can be cooked as an omelet or scrambled, and has a nuttier, more grain-like taste than plain egg.
To make egg with wheat germ, beat the eggs, stir in the wheat germ, and cook the mixture in a lightly greased pan over low to medium heat until fully set. Gentle heat helps keep the eggs tender.
Yes, wheat germ makes egg with wheat germ a little denser and less smooth than plain scrambled eggs. Stir it in evenly to avoid dry clumps, and cook gently for a softer result.
Yes, egg with wheat germ works well as scrambled eggs. Stir the mixture as it cooks and take it off the heat once set; this keeps the wheat germ from making the eggs overly dry.
Egg with wheat germ tastes savory with a mild, nutty and toasted-grain note. Fresh herbs, black pepper, or a little cheese can complement that flavor without overpowering the egg.
Yes, egg with wheat germ can make a filling breakfast because it combines egg protein with wheat germ. Serve it with vegetables or fruit for a more varied morning meal.
Cooking egg with wheat germ does not remove all of its vitamins, though heat can reduce some heat-sensitive nutrients. Cook it just until the egg is set rather than leaving it on high heat for a long time.
Egg with wheat germ pairs well with sliced tomatoes, sautéed greens, or whole-grain toast. A fresh salad also balances its soft, rich texture and nutty flavor.
Yes, cheese can be added to egg with wheat germ. Fold in a small amount of grated or crumbled cheese near the end of cooking so it melts without making the eggs too heavy.
Store leftover egg with wheat germ in a covered container in the refrigerator and eat it promptly. Reheat it until hot throughout, preferably in a pan over low heat, and avoid leaving it at room temperature for extended periods.

Egg with wheat germ combines egg with the nutrient-rich germ of the wheat kernel. It can be cooked together in a pan, much like a simple omelette; there is no single, widely established regional recipe for it, so preparations vary.
Its soft, savoury texture and gently nutty, grain-like note make it an easy breakfast or brunch option. Serve it with toast, sliced vegetables or a simple salad. The egg contributes protein, while wheat germ adds B vitamins, vitamin E and some fibre. For a lighter meal, use only a little cooking oil and pair it with fresh vegetables.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
