I love eggs especially soft boiled but I never like scrambled eggs.

I have recently tried making poached eggs and it took me couple of time to succeed. Since then, I love “poaching” eggs.

I was so pleased and satisfied; this was my poached eggs on toast bread, spread with Avocado. It’s sure yummy delicious!

Very strange, after that I do not seem to make it right anymore!!

Frustrated and disappointed!!

So, I watched many videos on making poached eggs and one of the common advice they gave was adding Vinegar. I tried that too but failed.

Well, thanks to famous Chef ~ Jamie Oliver & Gordan Ramsay; they commented the most crucial and agreed upon making perfect poached eggs is “Freshness” of the eggs. We need the freshest possible eggs. No wonder I can’t make it right, my eggs usually from fridge or supermarket!

Now, I would recommend soft boiled eggs to replace poached eggs… life is less complicated ....Lolx …

Please allow me to share my way of making half boiled eggs:

Half boiled eggs

Water in pot then bring it to boil, add a teaspoon of salt.
Put in the eggs and switch off the heat. Time these eggs for 10 minutes.
