Poached Eggs!
Have you ever had eggs benedict? I absolutely love it! its a poached egg served with bacon on an english muffin with hollandaise sauce. so basically poaching eggs is like cooking the egg in a pot of water without the shell. well, sounds easy right? haha
Egg poaching is awesome because u dont have to use oil and its very eggy! a perfect poached egg consist of a runny yolk, a thin layer of eggwhite over the yolk and no raw eggwhite parts left. You might run into some difficulties at first but just keep trying until u get the perfect poached eggs!
Poached eggs
2 eggs ( or how many u wanna eat )
3 tsp salt
1 shallow pan ( or thick pan but i prefer using a shallow one)
water to cover more than half of the pan
vinegar (optional but i dont like using it as it spoils the taste)
Fill the pan with water and bring to boil. Once it is boiling, lower the heat to a simmer and swirl the water in the pan to a smooth circular motion.
Crack the eggs into a small saucer or ramekin and slip the eggs in one at a time into the centre of the whirlpool.
Allow the eggs to sit in the water until the whites around it begin to firm up and form a crust around the yolk.
Remove eggs gently with slotted spoon or ur steamboat ladle and gently tap out excess water.
Plate them straight onto your muffin or toast and enjoy with salt and pepper or hollandaise sauce.
Enjoy!
