Raised on a farm, we have fried eggs. I never had a poached egg. Here I am at 11:30 at night, come across you video and think I got to try it. Being we get about 35 eggs a day. I had a few eggs only hours old! 1145 I poach 2 eggs, Delicious! This is definitely top of the menu now in the mornings, or a midnight snack😂
Fried eggs are so good, I love crisping up the edges of the white and still have a runny yolk. But when it comes to Eggs Benedict poached eggs are the way. I bet your beautiful farm fresh eggs were perfect for this. 🙂
discovered the ladle method a few months ago, brushing the ladle with some olive or veg oil, parcook it for literally 10 seconds, then dump the egg in. works every time and looks perfect!
Crack 1 egg into a shallow cup filled with cold water so that the water is a finger level above the egg. Add a pinch of salt. Microwave for 1 minute (approximately). Done. Sorry to be a spoil-sport but this is not rocket science.
Thank you! It's so nice to have a video dedicated just to poaching an egg, even though you have instructions in your Eggs Benedict recipe. This way we can go straight to the eggformation we need😄
You are so relaxing to watch and the instructions are spot on without a lot of clinical mumbo jumbo.
I made my poached egg this morning using the strainer method and it worked perfectly, no vinegar or swirling the water around was needed.

What in the world do you mean by "clinical mumbo jumbo"? So what is your point?!
I love you John. You make folks happy!
His recipe are always a masterpiece, dynamite. God bless you John
I really appreciate your encouragement ❤
Thank you John; you always explain things so well with a little dash of humor. I love eggs!
Finally bought your book. After 2 weeks it got here, in Brazil. Already made 3 recipes! ❤
Perfect at explaining and a calm soothing voice, makes me feel i can do anything, in any of your videos 😊 thank you!
Literally my favorite breakfast to have every morning
Thank you for the tips. Hopefully, the next time I cook poached eggs, they are going to turn out great. With love from Australia 🇦🇺
I feel like this video gonna become legendary

@@bxi1547 nope
Thanks for helping me step up my egg game. I've never made or had a poached egg. Easy and delicious.
The vortex worked perfectly! Thank you!
I love poached eggs, and have tried all of the hacks. I like your method of creating a vortex to help the egg hold together. Thank you!

Thank you for this. I always thought i was doing this right but it never looked like the pictures id seen or anyone elses. I wasn't actually doing this correctly. Appreciate your videos. Thanks!
Everything you made is goooood thank you sooooo much always bless with your family much appreciated
Thank you John for another yummy recipe 💛🙏✨🤗
I just love watching your videos. You make the most amazing food. My family and I thankyou. With love from Australia 🇦🇺
The strainer hack has made my eggs immeasurably better. Thank you so much 😭💗
The strainer changed the game for me!! It works every time. I was just writing it to you and you demonstrated it! I should have known you knew!
Thank you! I tried the basic swirl version and it worked fine, since I had pretty fresh eggs. I'll try the strainer version too when I have less fresh eggs in the future!
I'm so excited to try this. Thank you sooo much for all your hard work ❤
I just love watching you John! I’ve poached before but never tried the water vortex. Also, I’m going to make a real effort to use very fresh eggs, straight from the hen. ❤
I learn so much from Preppy Kitchen!
Thank you so very much!!! I have never heard of using vinegar!!! Great way to poach an egg!!! God Bless Us All!!!
Thank you for posting this video. I’ve been wanting to learn how to make this for a while now. And now I can say I did it on my second try. 👍
Loved your poached eggs experiment. I loved the last poached eggs ideas. Thank you for sharing. 😋😋😘😘🥰🥰.
The Vortex Method is awesome !! Thank You
Love all of your tips and tricks, as usual! Thanks!
So informative! Thanks for the clear instructions. I’ll have to try making them! 😊👍🏻 Fabulous channel, by the way.
Yum! Love poached eggs and can't wait to try this. Thank you!
Thank you very much for your help and kindness. We've done are first pouched egg and it was amazing. 🎉. God bless EVERYONE 🇮🇪
Thank you, John!! Never a video I don’t learn from ❤
I didn’t know his name was John
@@timbofrey he say his name in every video.
I love your stove and pots just perfect 🤩
Brilliant. Thanks John.
Thanks for the tips. I love eggs benedict!
I was taught all the methods you demonstrated. I find the sieve method to be the best by far.
I’ll try this for breakfast tomorrow, asparagus and all. You’ve given me the confidence boost I needed after the last disastrous attempt I made 😅
Since learning to poach eggs, I generally have it for breakfast daily. It is a good reminder to have a time frame for the egg to cook. I don't usually vortex because I do two at a time, but it does look much better - using the vortex method, that is.
Thankyou Sir, I will definitely try it ❤
Thanks so much!! Making my first poached egg right now 😁
Thanks so much for this!!!! ❤
I didn’t know it was this simple, awesome!
I do mine with little salt and vinigar i just love the taste
I have been wanting to make ths type of egg! Thanks for posting how to!
First method is the best for sure.🎉
I love poached eggs!
Thank you for teaching me!!
Vortex swirl. I learned something. thanks.
I needed this tutorial!❤️
Brilliant explanation very helpful lunch my was gorgeous thank you 😊
I hate this way - you gotta love this guy ❤❤❤
This was the most helpful egg poaching video I've watched! Thanks a lot John! 😊
Sure is! Why you choose that color makeup though?
Thanks. You are the best!
Omg!!! Ive had or thought to have a poached egg but felt froggy with extra time today before work. They turned out perfrct!! Thanks soo mucho. Video was on point.
Excellent tips!!
I have tried so hard to poach an egg for years and I’m just not talented enough!😢 my mom loves poached eggs so much so I try! This may help thank you!❤️
Poached to perfection 😍
I like you guy. You srem humble and cool lol. Thanks for thr advice. Im currently attempting to poach an egg. Wish me luck 😅🤙🏼
Thanks, Jonathan! I love fresh eggs but have a very limited access to them, sadly. Thank you!
Thanks! I saved it. Very useful.
Saw this from Jeffrey Zakarian take a coffee mug fill it halfway with water crack the egg in the mug with the water and microwave for 45 seconds to 55 seconds depending on how much you want it done. It comes out perfect every time it’s just that easy.
I used to follow you religiously, then I had to go gluten free and stopped for awhile. BUT.... as I learned more and more about how to live and cook/bake gluten free, I have learned that I can adapt many regular recipes to accommodate my healthy requirements. Now I'm back to following you again and enjoying your recipes as I adapt them to being gluten free. This video was easy as making the egg needed no adjusting, I just need to put my egg on a gf piece of bread or english muffin. I am so happy to be back enjoying your videos!
Trying this for Breakfast tomorrow 😋😋😋
Not just a recipe, a how to!!
thanks, it's helpful
Great video John😊😊
This worked perfectly (the traditional way). Even my older eggs did great. My only mistake was spinning the water too fast. I had them with grits I made imitating part of your shrimp and grit video. Awesome.
That's my favorite too. Some egg distributors consistently have larger and fresher eggs. I think it's worth the effort to experiment.
Thank you for tips
Thanks!🌟💕
That was cool! And thank you John. I'm one of those people who are scared that I can't do it. Thank you for the pep talk to have me try it.
You’re the best👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dear John! I hope you are ok? You look skinnier lately. All the best for you❤
Mind ya business
Thank you for the poached egg hack comparisons! Do you have any videos on home-made nut butters?
John, most of us don't have chickens in the yard. That sieve trick works good.
I like this format of trying out multiple hacks, could be fun to do when you make simple recipes in the future
My favourite egg type.
My husband just loved poached eggs when he was living . I made them just like you with water and a little bit of vinegar.l
Amazing
Love the pans where did you get them?
Love your vortex idea but how do you do two.
First successful poached egg using your tips Thanks And first time I am thankful that I have an induction hob😂
John are you ok? I noticed you lost quite a bit of weight recently. Hope all is well
I tried your preferred method of poaching eggs today! They were delicious and I can't wait to wake up tomorrow morning so that I can make poached eggs again! I do have one confession and one question about the technique. First, I didn't use a deep enough pot, so I didn't get a really deep vortex and my eggs were not the best looking, even though they still tasted great. I'll do better next time! My questions is: does egg temperature matter? Should I put the eggs in cold or let them warm up a bit before poaching them? Thank you for the video!
I make poached eggs in the shell. 4 minute boil and done. Perfect runny yolk and no loss of egg whites.
How to poach an egg: First, you wait until the farmer is asleep. Then, carrying along a small container of 3-in-1 oil, you dink the hinges of the gate leading to the chicken coop ...
Lol!! Thanks for the tip!
Good cooking 👍
love it
Yummy nice recipe. 🙂.
We eat a lot of eggs but very rarely poach them. gonna have to give this a try, looks fairly simple, at least he makes it seem that way
I could never eat a poached egg but I love your videos
Could you PLEASE create a video going over your copper pots/pans and how to find quality brands? Maybe a full series going over all kitchen tools that are your go tos? I'm revamping my kitchen and having a hard time figuring out where I should invest (why I'm hoping you could go over copper!). ❤
How are you not 500lbs! Everything you make looks so freaking good!
Whoa sir.... What was that lid you used!? 😮 That was so cool
I love your cooking John. I am starting a cooking channel myself. I hope I do as well as you.
This looks good.👍 how fresh do the eggs have to be?
Does the vortex method work if you're making multiple eggs at a time though?
