Cooking methods
Depending on the skill level of the cook, you can use two methods of preparing breakfast.
First way
Boiling an egg without shells immediately in water can be done quickly, as professional cooks do. To do this, you will need the following products and ingredients:
- Two raw chicken eggs;
- Liter of boiling water;
- A pinch of salt;
- A teaspoon of vinegar;
- Skimmer;
- Saucepan or bowl with a wide bottom;
- Tablespoon.
Step-by-step instruction
1. Put boiling water over high heat. As soon as the water begins to boil, reduce the boiling power.
2. Season boiling water with salt and vinegar (optional).
3. Using a circular motion, make a small whirlpool in a saucepan with boiling water.
4. Pour the egg into the center of the vortex. To do this, they gently hit the shell rim, revealing above the epicenter of the whirlpool.
5. Using a tablespoon, collect the edges of the egg into a single whole. Using a spoon, slightly guide the formed egg threads to the center, which try to spread out in different directions. It is important not to touch the protein strongly so that you do not accidentally catch the yolk and disrupt its integrity.
6. As soon as the water with a hammered egg boils, they detect 90 seconds on the timer.
7. When the timer works, the poached bread is taken out of the boiling water with a slotted spoon. It is necessary to hold the finished dish over the plate for a few seconds so that the glass is excess water.
Second way
An easier way to cook poached meat is to use additional equipment. With its help, pouring an egg into boiling water with one ball becomes easier.

How to serve
A hot egg, boiled without shell, acquires a supple texture. The protein is soft and silky, the yolk acquires a caramel texture and stretches a little.
In order for poached to be a complement to a healthy and nutritious breakfast, it is served with toast, grated clove of garlic (on the day off, when you don’t need to go anywhere and the smell does not interfere with communication). A piece of cheese and greens are placed on top of the toast. On the greens put poached. You can cut the protein so that the yolk flows onto the toast.
