Stirring is shit unless you're only cooking one egg and who wants to cook eggs one at a bloody time? Life's too short. What I do: 1) Start with fresh eggs at room temperature. I take them out of the fridge a bit before using. 2) Get a large pan with a lid (I use a deep frying pan about 9" across) and fill with water to a couple of inches. Bring to the boil. Add a good pinch of salt and a tablespoon or so of vinegar (plain or white wine if you have it, malt if you don't.) 3) Crack the eggs into small mugs or bowls or ramekins. You can put two eggs into a mug; I use espresso cups and put one egg in each. 4) When the water is boiling, turn the heat off and wait for the water to just stop boiling. 5) Pour the eggs into the water from just above the surface -- the lip of the mug should be touching the water as you pour. The idea is to let them slide in as gently as possible. This is why I don't crack them straight into the water. 6) Put the lid on. Leave the heat off. Time four minutes. 7) Scoop the eggs out with a slotted spoon or (preferably) mesh skimmer. Maybe pat dry with some paper towel, although I usually just give them a shake. The idea behind not having boiling water is that it lets the egg set into a decent shape because it's not getting bounced around. The timing can vary a bit, depending on temperature and size of the eggs. So adjust if they are still underdone or overdone. The vinegar helps gets the whites setting as you pour them in, stopping them from spreading out too far. I find this gives decent results without being an enormous faff: Although you can certainly make it more complicated if you like: http://www.seriouseats.com/2014/10/the- ... party.html |

I never understood why people don't use a decent poaching egg mould - simply boil the pan, spray each little removable Teflon egg mould with a tiny little bit of oil and crack each egg directly into the mould, in soft boiling water. Close pan, soft boil for 4 mins, perfect, firm little poached eggs everytime (and not all "watery" like eggs cracked directly into water often are). It's just tools for the job, surely? A few quid from Amazon (although admittedly, Mrs C got the rolls royce but I'm not complaining about awesome cooked breakfasts all weekend, every weekend, money well spent) Burford Browns are nice eggs, too, btw. Kept in the fridge, natch. |

Post subject: | Re: Tomato sauce |
Must admit, I really don't like poached eggs that have been done directly to water; I like the firm egg white that you get from moulds. It's what I had from a kid, so I guess it's just what you're used to; it's certainly a whole lot less hassle. I can't stand it when people put vinegar into the water as well; had eggs benedict round some friends of ours the other weekend and for me, this tainted/ruined the whole breakfast. |

I hate eggs, because they are weird, but I poached Russell eggs by putting them in a microwaveable cup and covering them with a little water. 70 seconds or so and perfect runny poached eggs. My mum exploded hers though |

Post subject: | Re: Tomato sauce |
I dislike poaching egg moulds; it's another single-use thing cluttering up my cupboards needlessly and it makes weird looking poached eggs that look like fried eggs gone wrong. I also found they tended to overcook the yolks, although perhaps that was my technique or the cheap one I owned once.

They used too much vinegar HTH HAND. (It shouldn't be tastable.) Edit -- wait -- eggs Benedict should have vinegar anyway from the Hollandaise. |
