Colour of bad part of egg (3-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

off-white

'colour' is the definition.
(off-white is a kind of colour)

'bad part of egg' is the wordplay.
'bad' becomes 'off' (I've seen this before).
'part of egg' becomes 'white'.
'off'+'white'='OFF-WHITE'

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for off-white that I've seen before include "Very pale tint" , "something like cream" , "Very slightly yellowish or grey" , "Creamy?" , "Colour such as cream or bone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
