Poached eggs are too complicated for you?
Poached eggs
are the
supreme
discipline in egg
boiling
and because it is not that easy to achieve the right shape and consistency, they are probably rarely served by
amateur chefs
.
The soft eggs are just perfect on an avocado toast, ham sandwich or in spinach.
The tips and tricks you probably know on this subject are all a bit complicated, and range from
salt or vinegar in the water *
to the perfect whirlpool in the pot.
So this method by Julia Childs comes in handy, because it makes
poaching eggs child's play
.
Pre-cook poached eggs in the shell
Tuck in the eggs at the thicker end with an egg stick so that the shell cannot tear in the hot water.
Bring plenty of
water
to a boil
in a saucepan
without salt
.
Put the eggs in the hot water and let them cook for only about ten seconds.
After that, take them out of the water with a spoon, let them cool down a little so you can touch them.
Now carefully break
open
the eggs (this is how you do it without breaking the egg shell *) and then let them
slide
into the now
simmering water
and cook them until the egg white becomes opaque.
Since you
pre-boil
the
eggs in the shell for ten seconds
, the egg white is already a bit cooked and does not lose its shape in the simmering water.
The result:
Perfect poached eggs
without any extra tricks, gimmicks, special tools or magic handles.
So try the trick right away at your next Sunday breakfast.
