How to Make Dizzy Poached Eggs

  1. Gently crack 6 large eggs into a small bowl, ensuring no bits of shell fall in.
  2. Fill a 3-quart saucepan with 2 quarts of water and bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in 1/4 cup (60ml) white vinegar and 1 teaspoon of salt. This helps the egg whites coagulate.
  4. Using a slotted spoon, create a gentle, swirling vortex in the simmering water by stirring clockwise. The goal is a consistent, slow swirl, not a violent splash.
  5. Carefully pour one egg at a time into the center of the swirling water. Repeat until all 6 eggs are in the pan.
  6. Poach for exactly 3 minutes for runny yolks, or up to 4 minutes for firmer yolks. Use a timer for consistent results!
  7. Gently remove the eggs using the slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess water.
  8. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly poached eggs!
