KITTENCAL'S PERFECT POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• Grease a saucepan with a very small amount of melted butter or margarine (do not use cooking spray it will affect the taste of the eggs).
• Add in cold water to a depth of 2-inches in the saucepan.
• Add in milk and a pinch of salt to the water; bring to a boil then reduce to a light simmer.
• Holding the egg as close as possible to the simmering water break eggs one at a time into the water.
• Simmer over very low heat for 5 minutes or until desired doneness.
• Carefully remove eggs with a slotted spoon.

NIF'S PERFECT POACHED EGG

Steps:

• In a frying pan, heat enough water to cover the egg(s) to a low boil. Add salt.
• Crack an egg into a small bowl. Quickly dip bowl into the water. Slide the raw egg into the water. Immediately slide the other egg into the water in the same fashion.
• TURN OFF HEAT but leave on burner! Cover pan with lid - DO NOT UNCOVER and let sit for 4 to 6 minutes. You can uncover to check them, starting at 4 minutes. You'll know they're done if the white is not really jiggly.
• Using a slotted spoon, gently place eggs on a tea towel. If you use scented detergents or fabric softeners on your towels, do not use them. Instead, slide egg(s) onto good quality paper towels, so the towel doesn't fall apart. Let sit for a few seconds to drain the water.
• Place eggs on to toast, a slice of tomato, steamed spinach and/or a piece of low fat cheese.

PERFECT POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• Fill a 10" high sided frying pan with water until near the top.
• Add salt and vinegar to the water and bring it to a boil.
• Meanwhile, place the eggs in separate small bowls (coffee mugs work too!).
• Once the water boils, remove it from the heat and add both eggs at the same time on opposite sides of the pan.
• Cover the pan with a lid and let sit for 3-1/2 minutes for a soft yolk or 4-1/2 minutes for a firmer yolk. Lift from pan with slotted spoon and serve.
