Easy and simple poached eggs can then be seasoned with a pinch of pepper and maybe added to a slice of bread and some avocado slices as I love to prepare AVOCADO TOAST WITH EGG, or poached eggs are also delicious sautéed WITH TOMATO in the pan or to be served in spring together with agretti nests with eggs. There are various ways to cook poached eggs, the classic way in boiling water, or you can prepare poached eggs with a ladle or poached eggs with plastic wrap, I find it much simpler to prepare the traditional way. Some people call it poached egg and some call it shelled egg but the substance does not change to have a perfect poached egg you need to have the egg white set and the yolk inside will be liquid and creamy perfect to serve with bread to dip. Please, do not exceed the cooking time otherwise the egg will be hard and no longer creamy.

How to make poached eggs
Pour some water into a small pot, add a pinch of salt and some vinegar, put on the stove and bring to a boil. You don’t need a large pot because one egg will be cooked at a time.
Break the egg into a bowl, when the water starts boiling lower the heat a little and quickly stir the water with a fork to form a whirlpool, pour the egg into the center of the whirlpool and cook for 3 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the egg and place it on a plate, being careful not to break it because the yolk is soft and liquid. Continue in this way with the other eggs.
