Easy Poached Eggs

I actually like poached eggs much more than fried but rarely make them because of the whole dropping them in boiling water thing. The process is really hit and miss for me, and I often end up with a mess. But not anymore! I love this simple and foolproof method!

No poached eggs are no butter/ grease, especially if they are for when you sick

Yes, cooking spray or EVOO may be a better option if you’re looking for healthier. Or maybe even just adding a little water in the bottom of the ramekin would work as well if you completely want to cut out oils.

Trying any other method, I am unable to make an egg with runny yolk. I get a hard yolk or a huge mess. This is great! I don't care if it is non traditional like some of the snobs.

This method is 10 times more slower and more expensive than traditional poached egg method..

These look good, but I think this method isn't poached.

Boiled Water, a little vinegar stirred add egg cook for 1.5 min… your welcome 🤷🏽‍♂️

My clumsy ass would have missed the ramekins and cracked the egg right into the pot of water

Baby there’s other ways. That’s long, painful and tons of dishes!

This isn't poaching. For it to be poaching, the eggs would have to be submerged in a heated liquid medium.

You're making what are called Shirred Eggs. While many people make shirred eggs in the oven, you are using a water bath that is not in direct contact with the egg, so you are using Heating By Conduction rather than the combination of Heating By Radiation and Heating By Convection one would have baking them in the oven.

Nonetheless, you are making shirred eggs, not poached eggs.

Words mean things. We come to understand -- or misunderstand -- the world through them.

Not really a poached egg at that point

[waynewayne]

Completely missed the point of poached eggs. This is like putting lambo badging on a corvette.

[johnborsil]

This isnt poached this is shirred/coddled.

Poached using butter? More expensive, unhealthy and not responsible people posting their ideas!
