Vinegar-poached eggs with salt

{'text': "Poaching eggs can be a delicate process, but using vinegar helps the egg whites coagulate, resulting in a beautifully poached egg. In this recipe, we'll guide you through the steps to achieve perfectly poached eggs using vinegar and a dash of salt."}

Ingredients:

2 eggs
100g
1 tsp vinegar
5g
1/4 tbsp salt
4.50g

Instructions:

3. Prep the Eggs:
- Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. This will make it easier to slide the eggs into the water.
4. Poach the Eggs:
- Using a spoon, create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water by stirring in a circular motion. This helps keep the egg whites together.
- Carefully slide each egg into the center of the whirlpool one at a time.
- Let the eggs cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are fully set but the yolks are still soft.
5. Remove and Serve:
- Use a slotted spoon to gently lift the poached eggs out of the water.
- Place the eggs on a paper towel to drain any excess water.
- Serve immediately with a sprinkle of additional salt if desired.

Tips:

- Use fresh eggs for best results, as they hold together better when poached.

- Crack the eggs into a small bowl or ramekin before adding them to the water to make it easier to slide them in gently.

- Ensure the water is at a gentle simmer, not a rolling boil, to prevent the eggs from breaking apart.

- White or apple cider vinegar works best as it has a mild flavor that won’t overpower the eggs.

- If you're poaching multiple eggs, cook them one or two at a time to avoid overcrowding the pot.

The addition of vinegar and salt not only enhances the flavor but also helps achieve the perfect texture.
