The fresher the eggs the better this works. Ingredients:
water |
2 teaspoons salt (optional) |
1 tablespoon white vinegar (optional) |
4 eggs, very fresh |
salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Put water 1-1/2 inches deep in a large skillet and bring to boil. 2. Add salt and vinegar for a fimer but less shiny egg. 3. Reduce heat to a slow simmer. 4. One at a time, break eggs into a saucer and slip into barely simmering water, keeping eggs as separated as possible. 5. Cover skillet untill egg whites coat over yolks. 6. Remove cover. Cook 3 to 5 minutes until whites are firm but yolks are still soft when touched with the back of a spoon. 7. With a slotted pancake turner, lift each egg from the water and rest on a folded paper towel to absorb excess water. 8. Trim away the loose thin white. 9. Place on serving plate or recipe calling for poached egg. |
