Eggs

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the poaching liquid

In a large saucepan, bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the white vinegar and salt to the water. The vinegar helps the egg whites to coagulate quickly.

2

Crack the eggs

Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin to ensure a smooth transfer to the water.

3

Poach the eggs

Gently slide the eggs, one at a time, into the simmering water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer for a firmer yolk.

4

Remove the eggs

Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the poached eggs from the water and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess water.

5

Serve

Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately on toasted bread or alongside your favorite breakfast items.
