Poached eggs are a delicious breakfast option that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. However, poaching eggs can be a bit tricky, especially if you are trying to achieve the perfect texture and consistency. Fortunately, using an egg poaching rack and cups can make the process much easier.

  1. Fill the skillet about halfway with filtered or purified water.
  2. Place the egg-poaching rack in the skillet.
  3. Lightly grease the egg poaching cups with unsalted butter, olive oil, or lard.
  4. Bring a pot of filtered or purified water to a simmer over medium-low heat 225ᵒF to 250ᵒ Do not use chlorinated tap water.
  5. While the water is heating, crack an egg into each cup in the rack.
  6. When the water begins to simmer, cover the pan, open the vent, and let the eggs cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, depending on how runny you like your yolks.
  7. Once cooked to your liking, using a fork insert the 2 center tines into the slot at the end of the poaching cup remove the cups from the rack, and gently slide the eggs out onto the toast, English muffin, or plate. Use a spoon if necessary.

A poached egg is an egg that has been cooked by poaching in or over simmering liquid. This method of preparation is favored because a very consistent and predictable result can be attained with precise timing, as the boiling point of water removes the temperature variable from the cooking process.

If the eggs are at room temperature, the cooking time usually 3 minutes 30 seconds. If the eggs are taken from a refrigerator, then a longer time is required, though the exact time depends on the size of the egg, and other factors such as altitude.

Steam poaching is applied to a method whereby the egg is placed in the stainless-steel cup, suspended in the stainless-steel rack over simmering water. To cook, the pan is filled with water and brought to a simmer, or a gentle boil. The vented lid will be closed to hold in the steam, ensuring that the heat surrounds the egg completely. The cups are often lubricated with unsalted butter in order to effect easy removal of the cooked egg.

The result is remarkably similar to the traditional coddled egg although steamed eggs are often cooked for longer, and hence are firmer. Eggs so prepared are often served on buttered toast.
