How to Make Another Perfect Poached Egg

  1. Fill a small saucepan with 2 inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Avoid a rolling boil.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the simmering water. This helps the egg whites coagulate faster.
  3. Crack a large egg into a small ramekin or bowl.
  4. Gently swirl the simmering water to create a whirlpool.
  5. Slowly pour the egg into the center of the whirlpool. Cook for 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, or 5-6 minutes for a firmer yolk.
  6. Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the poached egg from the water.
  7. Drain excess water and serve immediately on your favorite toast, salad, or dish!
