My friend Kim at Starry Sky Ranch has joined with two other women to create Snapshots Around the World. This week's subject is "eggs" and I just happened to have this photo that I recently snapped when I was poaching eggs -- quite a few eggs for my very hungry husband and teenage boys.
It's best to place each egg you are poaching in a small bowl or glass so that you can place the container close to the simmering water and drop it gently. Always add a teaspoon of white vinegar to your poaching water and it will help hold the whites together.

This is something I have never mastered. Haven't tried in some time though so will try the vinegar.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip and for playing along!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever poached an egg in my life - unless you count breaking an egg into boiling ramen soup!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining in!
Give it a go, Kim. I saw Smitten Kitchen has a great tutorial. Poached eggs on asparagus would be lovely for your diet. With a little sprinkle of Parmesan -- yum!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, Rebecca.
Oh Sue, poached eggs on toast is one of my very favorite breakfasts. But my husband thinks poached eggs are only for Eggs Benedict! ;-)
What a pretty picture!
