I appreciate other people making videos helping me do research .. so I feel I should give back to the community. Unfortunately, many people do not think this way and want to post nasty comments and press the dislike button. I can only say that I'm glad they are not friends in my life.

[@richardrichardsen6611]

They may be from purists. Poaching, by its definition, implies the egg contacts the poaching medium. In this case water. What's going on here is a modified bain marie technique ( popular in Europe ) and not true poaching. I think the angle in this video is a nice looking egg. That seems to be the obsession with poaching today. But, you can poach in the traditional method, without tricks, and just trim up the cooked egg at the finish. There's probably not much difference in a water poached egg and the eggs above other than appearance. But if you want to poach in stock or other liquids using poaching cups defeats the purpose. Down votes should be reserved for crappy vids. This is a rather good video.

[@brettattee2294]

Thank you Richard - Good point. It is much easier this way for many people, some people don't like the vinegar taste when poaching that way. Additionally, regular poaching requires fresh eggs which this method does not require this. In any case, this video was meant to help people wondering if they should purchase the product - not to be a replacement for a tried and proven method.

Thanks man great vid, been a chef for over 20 years and wanted to see how these worked

Smart to put the yolks on top! Thank you! I looooove my silicone poachers but I never thought to separate the yolks to keep them from cooking as fast as the whites.

[@AntonGully]

That did nothing.

[@kell_checks_in]

Butter or oil changes the flavor of the egg. If you put in a tablespoon of water, it will slide out fine and still taste "poached."

[@bwinkle2915]

So put the water in for how long then tip it out before putting the egg in?

I read a good tip-place your cold eggs in very warm water to get them closer to ready to temp.

[@FrederickDunn]

I LOVE the demonstration, but those egg yolks are so pale... I do like the silicone over plastic microwave cookers, and of course putting it in simmering water is much healthier. Thanks for sharing! My only suggestion for you is to find some true free range eggs and you will never go back to whatever those are :)

[@Kimberlite66]

Its because they are eggs from the USA! All eggs are that colour ovr there. In NZ our egg yolks are bright yellow. Much like buttr in the US... its almost white. In NZ, our butter is rich and yellow.

I just got these and had no idea how to use em lol thanks!

[@jasonking7736]

Quick tip always add your seasoning (salt and pepper) after your eggs are cooked, adding the seasoning to raw egg stops the whites of the egg cooking thoroughly because it changes the eggs boiling point.. trust me I used to season my eggs in the pan for years and wonder why I'd get runny bits of white on top lol it's a easily made rookie mistake!

[@qozmiq]

Salt sitting on top of the egg will change its boiling point? An egg has a boiling point? There's just so much wrong with this from so many angles. Science doesn't work like that.

[@SuperLittleTyke]

I also use a poaching pod, but I tip the cooked egg upside down on to the toast. I just think it looks better with the domed side uppermost. If the egg white is still a bit loose, I zap it for 5 seconds with a culinary blowtorch. Or even another 5 seconds. You can also firm up the egg white in the microwave for a few seconds.

[@tigressnsnow]

Add a tiny bit of oil into the pods before breaking the eggs into them. They come out of the pods easier.

[@brettattee2294]

Absolutely correct!

I always like to sprinkle a teensy-tiny little bit of parsley, paprika, black pepper, salt & onion powder on top of poached eggs like these (before cooking) -- they look sooooo much prettier, & I like to serve these eggs with 2 pcs of diagonally sliced hot buttered toast!!

[@Cromper]

You only need to bring eggs to room temperature if you're going to cook them in the shell because there's less chance of them popping in the water.

[@dash-cam]

Edward Smith only Americans refrigerate their eggs. In the UK we don't need to.

[@Alex-ry6cd]

@@dash-cam I think you will find you still have to refrigerate them (advised on the packet). The only reason they are not refrigerated in stores is because they ship out so quickly and would be a waste of resources to cool. This was the official line when I asked Sainsbury's when working on the egg aisle. Also, frying or poaching with a room temperature egg will ensure a quicker, even cook with better consistency.

[@dash-cam]

@@Alex-ry6cd Eggs in the UK don't need to refrigerated as they're pasteurised unlike American Eggs which MUST be kept at Fridge Temperature. The British Egg Council recommends eggs are stored at Below 20 deg C but this is much warmer than Fridge Temp. If however you can't guarantee a constant temp lower than 20 you can obviously keep them in the fridge but it's not necessary

[@Alex-ry6cd]

@@dash-cam it literally says on all egg packaging "keep refrigerated after purchase". Only certain brands - like Lion Eggs - come pasteurised - Pasteurisng meaning the hens have been vaccinated against salmonella.

[@dash-cam]

@@Alex-ry6cd You're totally wrong. You're confusing vaccination and pasteurisation. Pasteurisation is the high heat treatment of products like milk to kill any bacteria, milk and cheese for example. Named after Louis Pasteur who invented the process. UK EGGS and no eggs are pasterurised as it would mean they're cooked. UK Hens are ALL Vaccinated against salmonella which means they're safe to eat and don't need to be refrigerated, just kept at a cool temperature. If you have a larder or cupboard as this is the BEST place to keep them as they're room temp for cooking. However some people keep them in the fridge as they can't control the temp of their cupboards. IN AMERICA ALL eggs HAVE to be kept in the fridge as AMERICAN Hens are NOT Vaccinated against Salmonella so to get round that THEY WASH their eggs in a bleach solution which means the delicate outer surface of the eggs is eroded which means the eggs are exposed to the air and HAVE to be kept in the fridge to avoid going off. UK EGGS ARE NOT bleached washed so they have their outer membrane intact so aren't vulnerable to the air like US eggs so DON'T need to be refrigerated in the same way. Just kept cool.

[@devrabiallas1292]

so the pink one was the first one and that was the room temperature one and that was the one that was a little overcooked so putting them in cold at 4 and 1/2 minutes should be perfect I just got four of them I'm going to give them a try

There is absolutely no reason to put the whites in before the yolk. It accomplishes nothing. Just crack the doggone egg and dump it in the pod. It’s an unnecessary step.

Why go to the bother of separating the yolk? The egg tastes just fine if you just break the egg into the pod. Actually, I always break my egg into a small dish, then transfer the egg to the poach pod. That way you can remove any bits of eggshell first. I only eat eggs from the farm gate. These are at most only 24 hours old and have lovely, deep yellow yolks. You can see the hens ranging free just across the field.

[@anti-ethniccleansing465]

He said, if you listened, that the yolk got stuck the bottom before.

[@SuperLittleTyke]

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 He actually said the yolk "would not come out properly". His fundamental problem is not greasing the poaching pod before putting in the egg. The egg is always going to stick a bit then. I put a small knob of butter in the pod, then swirl it around to coat the inside, and finally drop the egg in straight out of the shell. It's completely unnecessary to separate the yolk from the white.

[@SuperLittleTyke]

Yes, it is absolutely not necessary to separate the white and the yolk, especially when they're immediately put back together again.

[@SuperLittleTyke]

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Never happened and I've been poaching eggs in these exact same pods since they were introduced several years ago. The key is to butter or oil the pod before dropping in the egg.

[@reverendlisa914]

Hi we used these silly cups, followed the directions exactly. The little rubber cups tipped over, before and and during the cooking. On the counter it was nearly impossible to keep the upright. Once in the water, boiling action caused to of the cups to over turn the eggs into the water. (so what is the point of the cups). The eggs that turned into the water, overcooked, but were soft enough to eat. Additionally I noted that the cold egg was cooked perfectly and the room temperature egg was over cooked, as well as there is absolutely no need to strain the egg white from the egg yoke. We actually recooked our breakfast using an omelet pan with poaching cups and discovered that the an unstrained eggs, cold from the fridge cooked perfectly. placing in the pan with cold water bringing it to a boil and allowing the eggs to steep for 3 minutes for a perfectly done egg white and runny yolk. We through away the cute but silly little colored rubber BPA free egg poaching cups. That is why the negative thumbs down.

[@loisgibson4240]

You can get cups with a flat ring on bottom so no tipping. Check for them at Amazon.

[@seus2731]

do you turn the temperature down once the water starts boiling? how low?

[@caldwell1981ac]

That's totally undercooked

[@adamchurvis1]

This isn't poaching. For it to be poaching, the eggs would have to be submerged in a heated liquid medium. You're making what are called Shirred Eggs. While many people make shirred eggs in the oven, you are using a water bath that is not in direct contact with the egg, so you are using Heating By Conduction rather than the combination of Heating By Radiation and Heating By Convection one would have baking them in the oven. Nonetheless, you are making shirred eggs, not poached eggs. Words mean things. We come to understand -- or misunderstand -- the world through them.
