  3. Remove eggs from water once timer is up and let cool for 3 minutes. Gently crack egg around the middle and peel top half of shell. Slide egg out into a small bowl or over toast. Season with salt and pepper.

Recipe Yield

4 \"poached\" eggs

Recipe Note

Poached eggs are normally cooked directly in simmering water, but that can be tricky and lead to rubbery, messy eggs. I have tried different variations of times and temps, and this is the method I find produces a perfectly set white with a runny yolk. Use a kitchen timer for precise results, not the timer on your immersion cooker. Fresh eggs have tighter whites and produce the best results.
