Method
Preparing the Poached Eggs
- 1
Boil the Water
Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Add Vinegar
Add a tablespoon of vinegar to the simmering water. This helps the egg whites to coagulate and keep a nice shape.

Poach the Eggs
Crack each egg into a small bowl. Gently slide the egg into the simmering water. Repeat for the second egg. Poach for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer for a firmer yolk.
