I've been using an electric mixer for the vortex, it didn't turn out well...it just opened a portal to a dimension where poached eggs, the dominant life form, were poaching people. All that craziness just for poached eggs smdh.
This is the very best poached egg tutorial I've come across. I've always used too little vinegar and made too much of a whirlpool. This video explains perfectly what I was doing wrong and has just resulted in the best poached eggs I've ever made. They even did the whole "sphere" thing where they become a ball with a hidden yolk that bursts and is beautifully runny yet has perfectly cooked whites. Thank you!!
Waste of vinegar there. You only need a few drops to help hold the egg together. Good video though. Though def need another 30seconds if not a fan of runny whites. I spent a lot of time teaching a friend to poach eggs by video (I’m in Scotland, he’s in northern Ireland) because he loves them, but in the end, we both gave up on him and I bought him silicone egg poachers instead 😅
You really don’t need that much vinegar or if any at all. If you use fresh eggs and strain the eggs for a few minutes to separate the albumin (what causes the wispy strands), you should be fine. Also the excessive amount of vinegar makes the egg taste a little funky too.
gordon ramsay said to use very little vinegar, or specifically he said “a drop”. too much vinegar can give the egg a weird taste, u don’t wanna taste the vinegar for sure
It'll also add a weird 'skin' to the outside of your egg, hence why the ones in the video look a bit odd. This much vinegar is for people who haven't done it before and want an 'idiots guide' (for lack of a better term).
Hes not done it right. Drop the egg into a sieve first. All that loose white drops through. You don't want that loose white. Do that and the pan will be totally clean water afterwards. Makes a massive difference. Boring myself. 😅. There is solid white that's attached to the yolk, and this watery white that messes up the pan. Then put in a ramekin. No bubbles in the water. The egg will sit on the bottom of the pan. The water will be crystal clear when it's finished. 2 minutes should be enough. If it looks a bit hard boiled it's far too long, swear a lot call yourself a failure and chuck it in the bin.
I agree with everything apart from the vintager. Personally I have managed th same results without for years. But whatever works best for you. Keep these vids coming my man!!
There's never just one way to do anything when it comes to cooking. I guess it's down to personal taste and doing whatever works for you. Appreciate your support dude! 🤘
Turns out, white vinegar is needed for poached eggs, and sea salt. I splashed some vinegar, around dunno 10ml, and added some salt. Turns out this worked highly beneficial because as soon as I dropped a single egg in it, it's egg white shape was preserved. Microwaved it for 1:40 seconds on high so you've gotta be careful about the time as well.
Tried this just 30 minutes ago and was perfect! Thank you! I toasted some bread, spread some garlic confit on it, mashed some Avocados added some cajun seasoning and pepper, put a little salt and pepper on the eggs and added hot honey on top and it was heavenly.

In France they put the egg in vigorously boiling water and they don’t lower the temperature. After about 2 minutes you get a perfectly oval poached egg.
Great video. The only thing I do that’s different from you is to dip the eggs into a bowl of cold water after the 2.5 minutes. A) it stops the cooking process so your egg yolks won’t set and b) it removes the vinegar aftertaste. Great work.

I was having trouble w my poached eggs at class today but I'm glad i ended up getting one done before class ended. Now I'm here, watching videos about poached eggs 😭😭
Thank you! I have tried for years to make the perfect poached delight and you have shown me the way! Legendary! I may never need to go out for breakfast again!
Game changer! Was about to use those paper Poachies egg poachers but couldn't open the pouch lol, so I came on CZcams and found this video. Worked perfect first time, thank you ❤
I add avocado oil (since it can get to a high temp before turning rancid) only if I have to poach more than one at a time, most the time I try to do them individually. The oil prevents them from sticking together and the vinegar not only gives it a great taste, helps the runoff from foaming up, especially helpful when you’re cooking many and don’t want to puncture when grabbing out of the pot.
You don't need to worry about the temperature. That pan isn't getting any hotter than 100C (212f), and will realistically be sitting at about 80 (176f). There's no cooking oil that will 'go rancid' at 100C.
@@TheMharr thanks for the info! I’ve always been told that olive oil is a medium smoke point and to use other oils (as a general rule of thumb) when cooking at higher heats, so I’ve just stuck to that, but you are right, and I wasn’t thinking about the fact it wouldn’t be very hot when boiling. Thanks for the correction! :)
@@Missmay777 No probs! Smoke point is definitely worth bearing in mind for frying; though, unless you're doing really fast searing (something like a steak for example) where your pan needs to be ripping hot, olive oil is still *generally* fit for most purposes. I'd say I use it for at least 80% of my cooking. If you're unsure though, better to be safe than sorry!
why do chefs always recommend getting the "freshest eggs" in their cooking tutorials, like- I'm not gonna get some random egg I found on the ground in a chicken coop, it's gonna be a normal egg I found at the market. Like Im not gonna stand in the shop and smell which egg is the freshest so whats the point
Yeah right! And why do people always think their opinion is worth writing down? Like, literally not one person cares about your thoughts on eggs! I'm with you dude! 🤘
@@Al.Brady. fuck off dude he has a very valid point. And if you post content and choose not to turn commenting off, then you're going to get people's opinions. Grow up. It's the nature of the platform.
I bring the water to a rolling boil then take it completely off the burner and quickly drop in the egg. Let it sit for about 30 seconds until the outside sets. Then put it back on a low burner.
I’ve had eggs Benedict before at diners and when I attempted to make them at home for the first but something tasted and smelled so eggy. I couldn’t tell if it was the sauce or the poached egg but I know I didn’t smell or taste it at the diners… The eggs weren’t spoiled either so idk if anyone can help me understand what happened bc I want to try again
I do just make sure your pot is big enough. They don’t really stick together but the egg whites might touch just break them apart in the water gently before scooping out.
Very good instructions! I hate eggs but make them for wife so pleased I can do them better now.. I was going to far with the whirlpool.. came out nice but not as pretty like they do now
Or, you can use a sous vide at 63°C for an hour. Cold shock it and done. It’s a long time, but you can prepare other aspects of your meal in the meantime.
As a noob I gotta say poached is the easiest, it’s just cleaning the whites out of the water after is very annoying cause I don’t wanna add vinegar to it…
I discovered an even simpler method that doesn't require any vortex or vinegar, so you can make many eggs at the same time. You just need to preheat the egg briefly to make the white stable enough. It works every time. I made a 1 minute video on my channel that show the precise steps.
That's a lot of vinegar. I use about a tenth of that. A little splash if I use the concentrated stuff. Imagine making seasoned vinegar for a few eggs per bottle... it's cheap, sure, but wow you really don't need as much. I recommend a small pot and boiling water. Take it off the stove just after putting the eggs in and let them there.
Nope! Don’t need the vinegar or the whirlpool… just simmer the water and add eggs… 3 to 5 minutes later poached eggs… simple … no fluffing required. I do this EVERY morning breakfast.
Finally someone gets it. Just crack the egg into water if never misses. Occasionally you’ll have to go in and unstick it from the bottom of your pot but even that is still much quicker than this
I don’t know why people put them into containers before they drop them. As someone who’s worked years in the morning. You just crack and drop as close to the water as you can (into he centre of the vortex). It’ll stay together if the egg is fresh and cold. The fresher the better. An unnecessary amount of vinegar too, holy smokes - 4-5 caps of the bottle is all you need.
It's just one approach dude! Don't get yourself all worked up! Also loads of people work in the morning. You should specify that you mean as a chef so we know you're the real deal! 🫡
I made mushrooms and poached eggs from this egg recipe. I was never able to make poached eggs before that! But is it meant to be watery inside? The yolk was perfect but the white was only hard on the outside and then it was watery and gross on the inside

I think you don’t even need the vinegar, just that the pot of water has to be simmering and a SLOW whirlpool. Otherwise the egg whites break away too quickly for the shape to form while cooking rapidly
Yuck to eggs that taste like vinegar. Strain egg to get rid of watery yolk. Put lemon ice on the remainder. Lots of water ar 180. Swirl water. Drop strained egg . 31/2 minutes
I think 30 seconds more for a total of 3 min would be better, see that egg white running off with the yolk when you cut into your eggs? You won't have that.

No mention whether the eggs are to be room temp, or can they be right from the fridge (cold), which makes a difference with the time.
