PERFECT POACHED EGG
I'm like many others when it comes to ordering breakfast at a restaurant. That's when I often order a poached egg. Many are intimidated to poach an egg at home. There are a few key tips that will head you in the right direction, and you'll be on your way to perfect home-poached eggs.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with at least 3 inches of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce temperature to low--the water is ready when you see bubbles at the bottom of the pot, but there should be no bubbles breaking the surface of the water.
- Crack egg into a small-mesh sieve, allow it to drain, and then transfer the egg to a small bowl or ramekin in order to avoid a runny egg white. This step will give you a better-shaped poached egg with tighter whites.
- When water is at the right temperature, stir in about 1 tablespoon white vinegar which helps the egg white coagulate. Using a spoon, swirl the water in the center of the pot into a vortex or whirlpool, and carefully add egg to the center. Cook until egg white is set, but the yolk is still soft and runny, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Do not overcook.
- Transfer the egg to a paper towel to remove excess water using a slotted spoon. Serve immediately.

POACHED EGGS
Steps:
- Pour enough water into a 10-inch nonstick skillet to measure no less than 1 1/2-inches, place over high heat, and bring to 190 degrees F. Add the vinegar. Gently crack each egg into a custard cup. Lower each cup into the water until it touches bottom and gently pour in the egg. Cook for 4 1/2 minutes, adjusting the heat to maintain the temperature. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon, 1 at a time, to a tea towel lined plate. Trim the edges of the white with the side of a spoon and serve immediately. Eggs may be stored in ice water in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours. Reheat in hot water for 1 minute before serving.

Steps:
- Heat the water: Add enough water to come 1 inch up the side of a narrow, deep 2-quart saucier. Add 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 2 teaspoons white vinegar and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, crack 1 very fresh cold large egg into a custard cup or small ramekin. Use the handle of a spatula or spoon to quickly stir the water in one direction until it's all smoothly spinning around.
- TIP: Use this whirlpool method when poaching a single serving (one or two eggs). For bigger batches, heat the water, salt and vinegar in a 12-inch nonstick skillet and do not stir.
- Add the egg: Carefully drop the egg into the center of the whirlpool. The swirling water will help prevent the white from "feathering," or spreading out in the pan.
- Let it poach: Turn off the heat, cover the pan and set your timer for 5 minutes. Don't peek, poke, stir or accost the egg in any way.
- Lift it out: Remove the egg with a slotted spoon and serve immediately. Alternatively, move the egg to an ice bath and refrigerate up to 8 hours. Reheat in warm water just before serving.

Steps:
- Pour 2 tablespoons of vinegar into the poaching water.
- Crack open eggs one at a time, into a small bowl.
- Bring the water to a boil, then reduce temperature.
- When water reaches a gentle simmer, pour egg into a ladle.
- Gently transfer eggs into simmering water.
- The egg whites will coagulate instantly & the vinegar will change the pH level of the poaching water.
- Poach the eggs for 3 minutes spooning the simmering water over the eggs.
- When the whites become opaque and feel firm to the touch they are done.
- Gently remove eggs with a slotted spoon and lay them on sheets of paper towel to dry.
- Serve immediately.

Steps:
- In a 12-inch straight-sided skillet, heat 2 inches water over medium until bubbles cover the bottom and sides of pan. Crack each large egg into a separate small bowl (do not use eggs with broken yolks). When a few bubbles have broken the surface of the water, gently pour each egg into the pan, leaving room between them.
- Cook eggs, undisturbed, until white is just set and yolk is still runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to gently release eggs from the bottom of pan, if necessary.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove eggs from water. If using immediately, blot the bottom of the spoon on a paper towel to remove excess water before serving.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer to reach poaching temperature, between 160-180°F (71-82°C).
- Stir the water in a clockwise direction to create a whirlpool. Once the water slows down slightly, crack the egg into the center of the whirlpool. Let the egg cook until the white fully sets and the yolk is no longer runny, 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the egg with a slotted spoon, pat dry on paper towels, sprinkle salt and pepper (optional).
- Serve with your favorite breakfast items.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Put the water in a fairly wide nonstick skillet. Add the vinegar and bring to the simmer.
- As gently as possible, break the eggs into the water, taking care that they are spaced apart so that the whites do not touch. The water should be barely simmering. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks remain runny, about two and one-half to three minutes. Using a slotted spoon, drain the eggs on paper towels, handling them as carefully as possible to prevent the yolk from breaking.

Steps:
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a gentle simmer. Crack an egg into a fine-mesh sieve set over a medium bowl. Let watery whites run through into bowl below; carefully transfer egg to a small bowl (this helps eliminate the long, tentacle-like strands of egg white that may otherwise form, and encourages a smooth, round poached egg).
- Stir simmering water with a slotted spoon to make a gentle vortex. Tip egg out of bowl into center of vortex and swirl water gently to help bring whites up around yolk. Repeat with 3 more eggs so there are 4 eggs total in saucepan. Cook until whites are just set but yolk is still very soft (lift out of water with a slotted spoon and gently press on yolk to assess), about 2 1/2 minutes from the time each egg hits the water. Transfer to a warm plate with slotted spoon. Season eggs with salt and pepper just before serving.
- Do Ahead
- Eggs can be poached 1 day ahead. Transfer to a bowl of ice water instead of warm plate. Cover and chill. Reheat in barely simmering water 1 minute before serving.
