Some of the ingredients use in this recipe are







Ingredients for the poached eggs


1.White wine vinegar-1 tsp

2.Eggs-2

3.Salt- a pinch

4.Water for simmering the eggs.


Directions


1.Fresh eggs work best for poaching. The whites hold together better when the eggs are fresh.


2.Fill a wide saucepan,add a splash of white vinegar (about 1-tsp) to the water.


3.Bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. It should be hot but not boiling vigorously.


4. Crack each egg into a small bowl or cup, being careful not to break the yolk.


5. Swirl the simmering water gently with a spoon to create a whirlpool effect. This can help the egg whites wrap around the yolk for a neater poached egg. If you prefer a simpler method, you can skip this step.


6.Carefully lower each egg into the simmering water, one at a time. You can also use the small bowl or cup to slide the egg gently into the water.


7. Let the eggs poach for about 2.5 minutes for a runny yolk or longer if you prefer a firmer yolk.


8.Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, use a slotted spoon to lift them out of the water, allowing excess water to drain. Once done, keep it on a plate. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
