Steps:
- Heat the water: Add enough water to come 1 inch up the side of a narrow, deep 2-quart saucier. Add 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 2 teaspoons white vinegar and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, crack 1 very fresh cold large egg into a custard cup or small ramekin. Use the handle of a spatula or spoon to quickly stir the water in one direction until it's all smoothly spinning around.
- TIP: Use this whirlpool method when poaching a single serving (one or two eggs). For bigger batches, heat the water, salt and vinegar in a 12-inch nonstick skillet and do not stir.
- Add the egg: Carefully drop the egg into the center of the whirlpool. The swirling water will help prevent the white from "feathering," or spreading out in the pan.
- Let it poach: Turn off the heat, cover the pan and set your timer for 5 minutes. Don't peek, poke, stir or accost the egg in any way.
- Lift it out: Remove the egg with a slotted spoon and serve immediately. Alternatively, move the egg to an ice bath and refrigerate up to 8 hours. Reheat in warm water just before serving.

Steps:
- In a casserole, bring to boil 2 1/2 cup of water and salt. Add rice, cover and bring to boil. Let simmer at low heat for about 12 minutes or until the liquid has absorbed. Stir delicately the rice 2 times while cooking. Cover the casserole, remove from the heat and let sit about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oil, rice vinegar and chili paste, if using. Set aside.
- In another casserole, bring to boil the remaining water and vinegar. Reduce the heat to medium. Break the eggs one at a time in a small bowl and slide them delicately into the water. Let poach 3 to 5 minutes or until the white is firm and yolk is still runny.
- Distribute the rice in bowls and sprinkle with the reserved mixture of soy sauce. Garnish with an egg and sprinkle with green onion and sesame seeds.
