Hi guys! For those of you who may be a little intimidated with making poached eggs at home, I hope today's tutorial will show you just how easy it is! You can store poached eggs for 4-5 days in the fridge (see more tips in the recipe post), so they're also great for meal prep! What's your favorite breakfast with poached eggs? xo - Lisa

I learned to cook from my mother. At 77 I’ve never made a poached egg. That will change very soon because my wife has requested one. Thank you for the nice clear instruction. Easy to follow and sure to produce a perfect egg.

Thanks for this! i appreciate a how-to video that is clear, concise and above all, straight to the point without all the excess chatter.

In my biotechnology classes, I had learned that a bit of salt helps protein dissolve in water; basically the protein becomes more "water friendly", hence dissolves easily. So this may explain why the albumin (egg white) goes out of wack in salt water; it is just finding it easier to interact with the water and hence can dissipate easier. However if you add the vinegar, the pH lowers and since proteins can only maintain their structure (in this case, the liquid nature of the albumin) in a VERY specific range of pH and temperature, the lowered pH along with the heat will help coagulate the albumin faster. THANKS A LOT FOR THIS VIDEO ma'am. Really helpful !

😂😂😂.ive been eating my own made poached eggs every day for over 50 yrs. Put enough water to cover the egg, add a big splash of apple cider vinegar, boil medium to high, make sure the water bubbles over the top (i swirl it some to make sure my yolk is squishy, not firm). I just pour out the water while holding the egg in the pan w a spoon. Then slide it into the bowl. No probs but i've done it thousands of times.😊

As you said. Never made a poached egg before but all ways order them at restaurants. Followed your instructions and worked perfectly on the first attempt. Thanks for posting!

Thank you for sharing the method in so much detail. Really appreciate your effort and the recipe.

One slice of a good Turkish bread, toasted. Spread avocado, S&P. Add warmed, smoked salmon. Cover with fresh, baby spinach leaves. Top with two poached eggs & crumbled feta. Exquisite!!

🙂 Poached eggs on toast is my favourite weekend breakfast. But I use to find them a real pain to make. Took ages and often wouldn't work properly (broken, undercooked or overcooked) and it was difficult to get right. Nowadays, they come out absolutely perfect each time, as I have started to make them in my pie maker. I don't actually use it for pies anymore.....just poached eggs. I have a 4 pie maker. You lightly oil each hole, add a tablespoon of water, add an egg. Shut the lid and turn on for 3 minutes and 50 seconds, and hey presto.....perfect poached eggs. And if you oiled inside the press first, you simply wait for the machine to cool down, then wipe it down with a damp cloth.

Mine came out absolutely perfect. 3 minutes was perfect, runny yolks and totally solid whites. I’d never had poached eggs before and neither had my mom. We both loved them. Definitely won’t be my last time. I got more yolk cookin them this way then when I fry them and they weren’t over OR under cooked. My mom loved that they didn’t taste like oil and grease. This one’s going into my recipe book. 👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻

Thanks for a great video! I hate when videos drone on and on and have ‘sponsorships’ I have to listen to. You have quick and efficient explanations. Great work!!😘💋🥚🍳

Instant success, great video thank you!

Out of all the videos we have watched, my students don't find you annoying in the slightest bit. In fact they find you quite delightful. One has even said they don't want to punch you in the face one bit. Thank you and keep up the good work. -Signed Mr. Maggard's 3rd block class, fall 2021.

The sifting method really helped! I made eggs benedict for my wife’s birthday today and it was my most non-disastrous attempt yet!

Thanks, thanks for detailed instructions! You made it look simpler, now I will have to try!

Never seen the sieve trick, simple but very effective!

I used your method, and my first ever poached egg came out perfect!!! Thank you!!!

Perfect!!! My family loves poached egg but the "freshest eggs possible" doesn't exist in my reality. Simple trick with the sieve solved the problem. Thanks so much. Please continue to share:-)

Great video. I did 40 eggs, but only cooked 4 at a time. No vinegar, but I made sure the vortex was moving quickly. It sure helped I only lost one egg from the batch. Thanks for the tips!

It was a good watch. I'll try it and see how it comes out. Thanks much.

I put my egg in boiling water in a bowl for a min. or less, then crack it into the simmering water. The egg holds together perfect.

Sheila Johnson, I tried it today didn't work at all, the shell stuck to the egg.

My lady does poached eggs for breakfast almost every morning. Our eggs are still warm from the hen. No straining needed. Fresh is best for sure. We used to have to strain our eggs for that non whispy thing. Not anymore, thank goodness. Escaping the city/suburbs was worth it. Your advice is very good though, for those who aren't able to access truly fresh eggs.

Had no idea so many people were so "scared" of poaching an egg, it's actually very simple, I've been making them for almost decades at this point. I remember I once whipped one up for a friend and he was blown away that I could do it and that it was so good, said it was the best egg he'd ever eaten. He even told another friend about it later, "Dude she actually poached an egg, who does that? I've never seen anyone do that or eaten one outside of a restaurant, it was awesome"....lol so honored. But seriously, everyone should do it. Everyone should master all the egg cooking methods, eggs are the best. Try shakshuka sometime, it's amazing. And make it from scratch!

Poached eggs are a big favourite in our house, too. Even my husband churns them out as easily as making a pot of tea. Can't beat poached egg on toast for breakfast on a cold and wet day.

I just tried this. Magic. I started with the one at a time technique. I then did the swirl technique with multiple eggs. I went one at a time waiting for the initial outside set of the initial then subsequent additional eggs. I went to four. I know this will cause a difference in the “cookedness” in the eggs but not noticeable. I pulled the more set ones out first. Thanks for the video!

When cooking simple eggs takes more utensils and kitchen gadgets than the actual number of eggs.

OMDog! I was one of those people who ate poached eggs in a restaurant only, not a home. With this method, I believe I can cook as many as I like, especially with the “warm up” feature (after ice water). One great result of the pandemic, for me, is the quality of the food prep videos I’m finding. Thank you for your diligence in finding what works for poaching eggs! Blessings!❤️

So nice to find a method that consistently works each time. Thank you!

I just made these for the first time, and they were awesome! Thank you so much!

my Dad once made poached eggs after my brother told him to "add vinegar" our dad said the eggs "made me sick" I asked hoe much vinegar he added to the water? He said " About a cup..."

I remember my mother making poached eggs when I was under 10 years old. I vaguely remember her using a metal utensil that was shaped like a round spoon bowl with the egg in it. She used the steam of the boiling water to cook the egg in the spoon bowl turning it to a poached type egg. I wish I could get a hold of one of those utensils. It made awesome poached eggs. Maybe you might know what It was. Thanks for the lesson.

I have watched numerous videos on how to poach eggs and never had them come out good. I followed your instructions to the tee, and I finally made the perfect poached egg! Just like I would get in a restaurant. I was skeptical and only cooked 1 egg, but next time I'll cook 2. I think the tip with straining the egg white was key missing step. Thank you!!!!

I am so going to try this next time I have a spare 4 hours to prepare breakfast.
