Hubby has mastered poached eggs, they are soooo good, and to top it off, he makes a delicious, beautiful presentation shown here. He made a guacamole with our homegrown cilantro (bottom), veggies stir-fried shown on top of our homegrown greens (left), and the main act: a poached egg on top of an english muffin. He fills a sauce pot with water, a little salt, and a good splash of white vinegar. Bring to a boil, then turn the burner to low. Wait until the water stops boiling rapidly. You must break the eggs in a shallow cup and gently lower them into the water to avoid them spreading out. Leave the burner on low and cover the pot, let sit for about 5 minutes. He likes to slice cheese on the english muffin, spread some good dijon mustard on it, place the finished, poached egg on top, and stick in the toaster oven just to evaporate all of the water. Sometimes he gets even more creative by putting some herb de provence in the water as well. See why I married him?
