How the hell do you make poached eggs? | |

Crack the egg into it and nuke for 30 seconds to a minute or so. It takes some trial and error to find the exact water and time ratio for your microwave but works great every time when you get it. |

The poached egg is made by first bringing water to a rolling boil preferably in a steel pot with a lid. Then, SHUT IT OFF! Drop one or two eggs into the water, cover it with the lid, wait about 3 minutes, open and take them out with a large spoon or spatula. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31286987 You don't need to add vinegar by this method. It will work. Wow, that's the Kaminsky method, I didn't realise there were still students of that school of egg poaching. Controversial to say the least. Yeah, I heard about this one poor Moran, he was poaching eggs, minding his own business... Next thing you know the kitchen door explodes into splinters, and these Kevlar wearing stooges with MP5's got him on the floor, hog-tied, boot-on-the-neck, and screaming "What do you know about Kaminsky" I guess it was the International Egg Poachers Cabal? Be careful about how you poach the egg! . I spent a bit of time in Berlin during the early 90's and there were rumours of a Kaminsky cell operating in the city but I never got anywhere near it, they were always just rumours. Some of those lads on the Berlin underground scene were mental though, they were using poaching techniques that would make your toes curl, seriously hardcore shit.
