Time to poach an egg, chickens. I'm not sure why I feel the need to attempt this seeing as how the idea of cooking an egg in water is kind of gross to me.
Julia Child says to use vinegar. I'm assuming white? I dunno. B brought how white balsamic vinegar. I also don't know if that's okay for poaching. I don't know much.
Oy vey.
You're supposed to drop the egg into a combination of simmering water and vinegar for four minutes. Four minutes later this is what I had.
Then you put the egg in cold water to rinse of the vinegar and stop the cooking.
It looks pretty, but the white wasn't as cooked as I think it should be. It was kind of a watery mess overall. I will leave egg poaching to the professionals. It requires the amount of patience I don't have. I prefer fried eggs anyway.
